Soweto Derby to light up PSL
Orlando Pirates welcome Moroka Swallows
to Orlando Stadium for their Absa Premiership Soweto Derby clash on Saturday
(20h15).
The Buccaneers will look to put behind
them the disappointment of their MTN8 semifinal defeat to SuperSport United at
the weekend, while The Birds will be flying high after they beat Mamelodi
Sundowns to reach the final of that competition.
These two sides finished first and
second in the League last season, and look as though they will be challenging
for top honours again.
Swallows have managed three goals in each
of their last three games and are in top form, while Pirates have looked shaky
at the start of the campaign, unable to find the back of the net in their last
three.
They will be without leading scorer
Benni McCarthy as well after his red card in the loss to SuperSport at the
weekend.
I don't think Benni McCarthy will be missed on suterday, he did not contribute much other than to cost pirates on semis against SSU. I predict swallows will walk away with 3 points if they continue with the form run.
