Polokwane vs AmaZulu Prediction: A low-scoring opener is expected

Old Peter Mokaba Stadium will host the South Africa Premier League encounter between Polokwane and AmaZulu. The last meetings between these ꦅsides ended without a win f♔or either team. Below, I will analyze this opener and make predictions. 

Polokwane

Polokwane ended the previous season with 39 points from 30 matches, finishing 8th. In that run of matches, this team scored 21 goals while conceding 27 in the same number of matches. In the meantime, their last matches in this game saw Polokwane win one, a 1-0 win over the TS Galaxy. The home team's recent matches to this saw Polokwane draw Sekhukhune, Richards Bay, and Kaizer Chiefs while losing to Mamelodi Sundowns. 

AmaZulu

AmaZulu finished the previous season with 36 points from 30 matches, leaving them seated 11th in the standings. AmaZulu scored 24 goals in that match while conceding 30 in the same number of games. AmaZulu's run of games into this one in those matches saw them defeat Sekhukhune. In the meantime, AmaZulu lost to Richards Bay and Golden Arrows while drawing Stellenbosch and Kaizer Chiefs. 

Expert Betting Tips

I do not see a clear winner in this game looking at how their previous meetings ended. While we have witnessed less than two goals in each of their last meetings, this one does not look like there will be any difference. While we might experience few goals here, a draw should settle the two sides in this opener game as the two teams will work hard to avoid defeat.
