APWin Prediction

Double Chance: Home or Away

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Polokwane City to win the 1st half

While the half-time market is not a particularly popular betting market, it does provide a good deal of value. And this is true for Polokwane City vs Kaizer Chiefs, where we have Polokwane City to win the first half as our best bet.

Polokwane City has been quite a fast starter at home as they quickly put the pressure on their visitors in the opening minutes. That strategy should lead to a Polokwane City taking an advantage into half-time.

👉 Our prediction is: over 9.5 corners

Our top tip for Polokwane City vs Kaizer Chiefs is to take advantage of the corners market, particularly taking the over on 9.5 corners. There is good value to be had in that bet, which is priced at 1.89.

Both teams need to combine for at least 10 corners to win the bet, which may seem like a lot. But based on their statistical profile for this season, we expect them to easily clear that mark in their upcoming matchup.
