Relegation candidates Supersport United will play host to Orlando Pirates at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in the PSL on Tuesday evening. Matsatsantsa are 25th in the league standings, while the Buccaneers are second. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Supersport United are in a spot of both, currently level on points with Cape Town City in the relegation playoff spot. However, the one positive is that they have two games in hand.
Matsatsantsa lost their last match 2-1 to Stellenbosch on Saturday, and have now won just one of their last eight matches since the start of March (W1 D4 L3).
At home, though, the hosts are unbeaten in their last three matches (W1 D2 Lo) and kept clean sheets in each of those games.
Meanwhile, Orlando Pirates have three games remaining, but their league position is already confirmed (second place), regardless of the outcomes of their upcoming matches.
The Bucs played out a 1-1 draw against TS Galaxy over the weekend, extending their unbeaten record to four matches, while only losing one of their last nine (W6 D2 L1).
The visitors are on a three-match win streak on the road and unbeaten in five, while having maintained clean sheets in three of those games.
