Relegation-threatened Magesi FC will be without a key figure in midfield when they host Orlando Pirates in a crucial Betway Premiership clash this weekend.
The two sides meet on Saturday evening at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium, with desperate for maximum points for very different reasons.

The Buccaneers were handed a major boost in the title race during the midweek after log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns dropped points in a 1-1 draw with Kaizer Chiefs.
Pirates currently occupy second place with 62 points from 27 matches, boasting a game in hand and a superior goal difference over the Brazilians.
Magesi, rooted to the bottom of the table, still have a chance at survival if they can secure positive results in their final three games.
Dikwena tša Meetse are just one point shy of 15th-placed Marumo Gallants and two points behind Orbit College, making every point vital.
However, their task is made harder as they must navigate this fixture without defensive midfielder Motsie Matima, who is serving a suspension.
