Galaxy & Pirates Starting XIs Announced

Jwaneng Galaxy and Orlando Pirates have announced their starting line-ups for this afternoon CAF Champions League clash at National Stadium, Gaborone.

Pirates’ CAF Champions League journey continues as they face the team that ended their dreams last season. The Buccaneers beat Disciples FC 4-0 on aggregate in the first round.

Meanwhile, Galaxy beat Namibian champions African Stars on penalties, losing the first leg 1-0 before cancelling out that score in the second leg to force penalties.

Last year, the Buccaneers lost to 1-0 Galaxy at the very same stadium and they will look to avoid that this time around.

Jose Riveiro’s side are already in the final of the MTN8 after beating SuperSport United and Cape Town City but will also hope to qualify for the CAFCL group stages this time around.

Here is how they line up:

Galaxy XI: Phoko, Keredilwe, Mkhonto, Mpolokang, Setsile, Mangola, Kebatho, Masuku, Sechele, Leinanyane, Wendell

Subs: David, Moyo, Makgantai, Baruti, Sesinyi, Gaolebale, Ramotse, Fredericks, Bante

Pirates XI: Chaine, Ndah, Sesane, Van Rooyen, Hotto, Makhaula, Mbatha, Saleng, Maswanganyi, Mofokeng, Mabasa

Subs: Buthelezi, Sibisi, Gilberto, Dlamini, Maela, Kimvuidi, Rasebotja, Moleleki, Radiopane
