Cape Town City and Orlando Pirates confirmed their starting lineups for this evening’s DStv Premiership encounter at DHL stadium.
On and Off City have one of their favourite fixtures as they always get the better of Pirates in Cape Town.
If Eric Tinkler’s side are to do continue with the hoodoo they will have to do it with their main man Khanyisa Mayo who is out injured. The 11th-placed City are coming to this game having lost their last league game against Supersport United.
New year, hopefully comes with new things for the Sea Robbers – that’s the hope of their supporters since this fixture is the one they’ve been struggling to win. Jose Riveiro’s side have never won under Table Mountain playing against Cape Town City.
The MTN8 winners are sitting fifth in the standings with 19 points, 18 points behind log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns. Meanwhile City is three points away relegation zone with 16 points.
Here’s the lineup:
CT City XI: Keet, Lakay, Fielies, Cupido, Mkhize, Mokeke, Zapata, Ambina, Nodada, Mdantsane, Mani
Pirates XI: Chaine, Maela, Sibisi, Xoki, Shandu, Timm, Monare, Dlamini, Saleng, Hotto, Erasmus
