Last five games: LLLWD

The Buccaneers have won one of their last five games in all competitions and head into this encounter following their victory in the MTN8 Cup final against Mamelodi Sundowns. The contest, which ended in a toothless stalemate, was one of the Orlando Pirates' best games in a long time, and they deserved the (3-1) penalty victory.

Orlando Pirates are well prepared for this tournament after their elimination in the CAF Champions League.

Last five games: LLLLL

The Urban Warriors have not won any game since their promotion to the premier league. They’ve lost eight consecutive matches in a row but have found the back of the net in their last four consecutive games.

Cape Town Spurs have a stern test ahead of their encounter with Orlando Pirates, and only a win here can revive their season.

Orlando Pirates have won twelve, while Cape Town Spurs have recorded three victories and five games ending in a row over their previous twenty meetings. Despite changing their coach, Cape Town Spurs failed to win their recent game at home and will have to fight tooth and nail to get anything away from this game. The Buccaneers will see this game as a stepping stone to bounce back from their recent woes; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.70.

We expect to see more goals after the break for 2.15.

Orlando Pirates might even get a halftime victory here for 1.93.

Good luck!
