Head to Head


Pirates hold a 5-2 advantage over Sekhukhune with one draw in eight meetings.

Sekhukhune ended a three-match losing streak vs Pirates by winning 2-1 when the sides last met in March 2024.

Sekhukhune United Form & Team News


Sekhukhune are in strong form. They sit fourth in the PSL table and have won five of their last eight matches. 

They won successive matches, 2-0 at AmaZulu and 3-0 at ten-man SuperSport United. After losing 1-0 at Kaizer Chiefs, they responded with a 2-0 home win over Cape Town City in the Nedbank Cup. 

On Saturday, they played 72 minutes with ten men but left Stellenbosch with a valuable 1-1 draw.

Coach Lehlohonolo Seema is without midfielders Relebogile Mokhuoane and Siphesihle Mkhize due to suspension. 

Sipho Mbule is a doubt in midfield whilst defender Trésor Tshibwabwa should return to the XI. 

Sekhukhune United Predicted Lineup


Sangare; Mkhabela, Cardoso, Tshibwabwa, Rammala; Mntambo, Monare; Otladisa, Mbule, Makgalwa; Boyeli.

Orlando Pirates Form & Team News


Pirates are flying this season. They have won 10 of 12 league matches and are six points off Sundowns with a game in hand. 

A 1-0  defeat at Cape Town City in the league was followed by a 2-1 home win over Belouizdad in the CAF Champions League. Pirates followed that by winning 2-1 in Cairo vs Al Ahly to top their CAF group.

They won 3-1 at Richards Bay in the Nedbank Cup before beating Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday. A 96th minute penalty brought a 1-0 win in controversial circumstances.

Olisa Ndah is injured in defence for Pirates so Thabiso Sesane and Nkosinathi Sibisi will play at the back. 

Winger Monnapule Saleng remains on the fringes due to a contract dispute. We may see some rotation in the forward areas for this match. 

Orlando Pirates Predicted Lineup


Chaine; Van Rooyen, Sibisi, Sesane, Mako; Makhaula, Mbatha; Hotto, Maswanganyi, Mofokeng; Makgopa.

I see Pirates winning this match with Over 1.5 Team Goals scored.
