Where the money is
How much money is actually on each selection, next to what the price says it should be. A gap is not a tip — it just means the crowd and the book disagree.
**African Stars need a miracle here** — they're shipping goals left and right, and **Orlando Pirates** are the clear favorites rolling into this CAF Champions League second round. 🏆
African Stars are 1W-4L over their last five with defensive wobbles everywhere. Pirates, meanwhile, are battle-tested at this level, sitting 2W-1D in their recent run and boasting real European-style pedigree.
Key storylines:
- **E. Makgopa and B. Radiopane** lead Pirates' attack against a leaky African Stars backline that's conceded at least once in three straight matches
- Pirates' **D. Hotto and S. Zulu** will look to control the flanks and funnel possession through midfield maestro **C. Dansin**
- **African Stars FC** have won only once in five and desperately need an upset spark at home, but form suggests they're outgunned
Expected lineups:
- **Orlando Pirates**: S. Chaine, D. Hotto, S. Zulu, T. Xoki, K. Sebelebele, C. Dansin, M. Mthiyane, T. Moremi, B. Ngwato, B. Radiopane, E. Makgopa
Prediction:
**African Stars 0-2 Orlando Pirates**
Pirates edge this one comfortably. Too much quality, too little fight from the hosts. ⚽
Our calls before kick-off, and how they went.
A confidence, not a tip. We do not claim these beat the bookmakers' price — the odds are short precisely because the outcome is likely.
