Orlando Pirates have announced their starting line-up for the must-win CAF Champions League second leg clash against DRC side FC Saint Eloi Lupopo at Orlando Stadium.
Esgodini is expected to be buzzing this afternoon as Pirates supporters are expected to create hostile environment for Saint Eloi Lupopo to help their team overcome a 3-0 deficit.
The Buccaneers need at least three unanswered goals to push the tie to penalties, while a 4-0 would send them to the group stages of the CAFCL. However, in case Lupopo score, the Buccaneers would need five goals to progress.
Lupopo ended Pirates 11-match unbeaten run in all competitions last week hammering them 3-0 at home.
However, Lupopo dosn’t have a good record on South African soil, having lost to Sekhukhune United and Marumo Gallants.
Here is how they line up:
Pirates XI: Chaine, Mbokazi, Seema, Hotto, Sebelebele, Nduli, Mbule, Nemtajela, Moremi, Maswangangyi, Appollis
Subs: Buthelezi, Sibisi, Lebitso, Ndaba, Mariko, Dlamini, Dansin, Mbuthuma, Mabasa
St Eloi Lupopo XI: tbc.
