Team news is in for this evening’s DStv Premiership match between Orlando Pirates and AmaZulu.
This is the final DStv Premiership of 2021, with the league only set to return in February 2022.
There’s a lot to play for both sides, as if there is a winner of the game, that team will go into second place.
Pirates are currently fourth, while AmaZulu are fifth, with goal difference separating them.
A draw would see them remain where they are, behind leaders Mamelodi Sundowns, Kaizer Chiefs and Stellenbosch.
It’s been a long time since Usuthu beat Pirates, with it last occurring in 2013. This will be the third meeting in 2021, with Pirates winning last season’s game, however the two teams drew in their last meeting earlier this month.
Pirates are without the suspended pair of Happy Jele and Paseka Mako.

Orlando Pirates XI: Mpontshane, Nyauza, Mngonyama, Shandu, Maela, Motshwari, Mosele, Makhubela, Lorch, Hotto, Peprah.
