Orlando Pirates have confirmed that midfielder Goodman Mosele and striker Zakhele Lepasa are currently sidelined with injuries.
Both players are yet to feature for Jose Riveiro’s side this season, but seem to have to wait longer to make a return to the pitch.
The Buccaneers face Jwaneng Galaxy in the second leg of their CAF Champions League second preliminary round clash after beating Morena Ramoreboli’s side 2-0 away from home.
If they can defend their first-leg advantage at Orlando Stadium on Saturday, they will book their spot in this year’s CAFCL group stages.
While Lepasa and Mosele won’t be available for selection, Paseka Mako has returned from his long-term injury.
“Zakhele Lepasa and Goodman Mosele remain on the mend after sustaining ankle and knee injuries respectively, while a return to action looms for Paseka Mako who recently resumed full training,” the club stated.
“There could be bigger roles for Boitumelo Radiopane and Thuso Moleleki, who both made cameos in midweek.”
