Orlando Pirates and Stellenbosch FC have announced their staring XIs for their DStv Premiership clash at Danie Craven Stadium this evening.
Following a perfect start for Pirates after 1-0 win against their Soweto rivals Swallows FC in the first round of DStv Premiership, the Buccaneers will look to continue with the same performance when they face Stellies, whom themselves got a goalless draw against Marumo Gallants.
Last season ‘Ezimnyama Ngenkani’ took all maximum points when they visited the Cape Winelands side, beating Stellenbosch 3-0.
After finishing inside the top eight for the very first time Stellenbosch will look to continue with last season’s fire-power even though they’ve lost some of their arsenals.
Three of the last six clashes between the two ended in a draw, while Stellies won once and the Sea Robbers collected two victories.
