After missing out on a chance to put one hand on the Betway Premiership trophy in front of their home fans when they were held to a goalless draw by Durban City last week, Orlando Pirates will get a second bite at the title when they meet ORBIT College FC this coming weekend.
The Buccaneers currently sit two points behind log leaders and defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns on the Betway Premiership log with 66 points from 29 matches. Sundowns have 68 points from 30 games.
The equation is therefore simple for Pirates. They must beat the Mswenko Boys at Mbombela Stadium on Saturday at 3pm to end their 14-year wait for a league title. Otherwise, Sundowns will lift a ninth record championship since the 2017/18 season.
