Carling Knockout Draw Reveals Round Of 16 Fixtures As Big Guns Avoid Each Other

Orlando Pirates, Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs will not play each other in the round of 16 fixtures of the 2025/26 Carling Knockout Cup.

The draw was held on Monday 22 September. The second cup competition of the season features all 16 Premier Soccer League PSL clubs and kicks off on 4 October.

Perhaps Kaizer Chiefs , who last won the Carling Knockout in the 2010/11 season, will have the most testing fixture when they face Stellenbosch FC away.
