Maritzburg United vs Casric Stars Prediction: The home team are the favourite here

On Wednesday, Maritzburg United will lock horns with division two side Casric Stars at the Harry Gwala Stadium. The home side must win on their ground by more than a goal to assume the top spot. 

The Blue Army finished 15th on the log and qualified for the playoff round. The same thing happened to the home side last season, and we believe they’re going to make it again this round. Maritzburg's last game ended in a (1-1) draw with champions Mamelodi Sundowns. It was not a bad result considering they played against the best side in the league. 

Maritzburg won three, drew six, and lost six in the last fourteen games at home. 

The home side head here after a defeat against league-rival Cape Town Spurs in their opening game. The second division-based side have been fantastic this season and almost secured an automatic promotion. Casric Stars picked up fifty-six points from a possible ninety and were below the league leaders with just a point. They have not played in the premier league before and will be relishing their chances of winning this round. 

Both sides will meet for the first time, and we believe the home side are far ahead of the visitors. Maritzburg were unbeaten in their last three games in the premier league and almost secured a place above the relegation zone. We expect the home side to win here for 1.80.

Bet on home win and over 1.5 goals for 2.30.

A correct score of (2-0) might surface here for 6.20.

Good luck!
