Team news is in for today’s DStv Premiership match between Orlando Pirates and Marumo Gallants.
Gallants travel to Soweto aiming for their first win against Pirates since they joined the DStv Premiership. Earlier in the campaign the two teams played to a goalless draw, while last season when Gallants were known as Tshakhuma, they played to a goalless draw and lost 3-0.
Bahlabana Ba Ntwa head into the game in the back of three wins, one loss and one draw in their previous five games.
Meanwhile, the Buccaneers enter the game wounded after they were humiliated with a heavy score of 4-1 by Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday at Loftus Stadium.
The hosts will be without their important defender, Olisa Ndah after he had picked a yellow card in Pretoria. Pirates have also confirmed that Collins Makgaka is likely to miss the game as he is still not 100% after picking up an injury against TS Galaxy.
The two teams meet at Orlando Stadium later today at 17:30.
Here is how they line up:
Pirates XI: Mpontshane, Jele, Nyauza, Shandu, Mako, Motshwari, Mosele, Makhubela, Lorch, Hotto, Peprah
