Orlando Pirates head coach Jose Riveiro has confirmed the injury of Olisa Ndah was not serious but ruled out for players ahead of the Hungry Lions clash this weekend.
Pirates take on the second-tier side in the last 16 of the Nedbank Cup, as they look to continue their pursuit of retaining their domestic cup title.
“It [injuries] didn’t change so much, the situation with Evidence Makgopa, Paseka Mako, Bandile Shandu,” Riveiro confirmed on Friday at the pre-match press conference.
“Now we have the suspension of Thabiso Lebitso, he came to the team with three yellow cards from Chippa, and the fourth was against Kaizer Chiefs, he won’t be part of the game and that’s all in terms of casualties and little injuries.
“Everybody else is available for the match, Olisa Ndah? He’s fine, it was something minor, so luckily he is ready to compete again.”
The two sides will meet at Orlando Stadium on Saturday afternoon at 18h00.
