Pirates Provide Team News Ahead of Gallants Tie

Orlando Pirates have provided team news ahead of meeting Marumo Gallants in the Carling Knockout Cup final. 

The two teams are scheduled to meet on Saturday at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.

The Buccaneers will be looking hoist their second trophy this season, having won the MTN8 in September, defeating Stellenbosch in the final.

This could also be their second under the guidance of Abdeslam Ouaddou, who joined at the beginning of the season, replacing Jose Riveiro.

The Sea Robbers will miss the services of Sihle Nduli, who sustained an injury during the Betway Premiership match against Golden Arrows a few weeks ago.

Nduli has now been sidelined for three matches – against Richards Bay, Chippa United, and Durban City.

“They could miss the calm influence of the injured Sihle Nduli in midfield for one more fixture, but have enough firepower in the position from the likes of the experienced Makhehleni Makhaula who is hitting his stride after racking up valuable minutes following his spell on the sidelines,” the club wrote on their website.
