Orlando Pirates confirmed their starting lineup for this evening’s CAF Champions League preliminary round second leg clash against Djabal at Orlando Stadium.
With one foot already in the next round for Pirates after narrowly beating Djabal by 1-0 away from home courtesy of in-form Zakhele Lepasa.
We saw a lot of changes from Jose Riveiro in the starting line-up of the first leg with Relebogile Mafokeng, Monnapule Saleng and Thabiso Monyane the only regulars starting the game.
But today’s line-up looks closer to the Spaniard’s preferred XI with the likes of Nkosinathi Sibisi and Zakhele Lepasa returning.
A draw would be enough for the Buccaneers to seal a place in the next phase of the tournament. Djabal FC is here to find that crucial away goal that could help them.
When the two sides met in 2013, Pirates won 9-0 own aggregate, beating Djabal 5-0 at home.
