Orlando Pirates will close the chapter on the 2024-25 PSL season in midweek when they host Magesi at Orlando Stadium. The Bucs are in second place in the league standings heading into the season finale, while the Black Crocodiles are 13th. Let’s get into the match prediction.
It’s been a season of highs and lows for Orlando Pirates, who are set for a third consecutive runners-up league medal. They also made two domestic cup finals and won one, while also reaching the last four in the CAF Champions League.
Pirates played out a 1-1 draw against AmaZulu over the weekend, which extended their unbeaten league run to six games (W4 D2 L0).
The hosts have only lost one of their last 11 league games, and it came at home. However, that was one of only two defeats the Sea Robbers have conceded at Orlando Satium this season (W10 D1 L2).
All in all, Magesi will be fairly pleased with their first season in the top flight - not only did they survive the drop, but also picked up silverware, winning the Carling Knockout Cup.
They played out a 1-1 draw against Marumo Gallants on Saturday, taking their record to four wins, two draws and just one loss in their last seven league games.
On the road, though, the visitors have struggled mightily this season, currently on a four-match losing streak, while having failed to score in nine of their 13 away games to date.
