Orlando Pirates form and stats

The visitors are W1-D2-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Premier League. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Orlando Pirates are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Orlando played 1-1 against AmaZulu in their previous match.

A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Richards Bay.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 6 similar matches played by Orlando Pirates in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for Orlando Pirates, 2 draws and 3 defeats.

Observe: 9 of the latest 11 league fixtures featuring this team have ended with only one (or no) side scoring (Both Teams to Score NO in sports betting terms).

The schedule is very tough for Orlando Pirates now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Mtn 8 Cup game at Mamelodi Sundowns is waiting in only four days.

Orlando Pirates are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed {2 goals} from 5 away games. It's not easy to score on Orlando Pirates as they have only conceded 4 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Golden have avoided defeat in the last 6 fixtures (1-5-0) versus Orlando Pirates.
