Pirates will be looking to build on last weekend’s win over Golden Arrows and move up the table, while Stellenbosch are hoping to end their eight-match winless run.
The Buccaneers ended the pre-FIFA World Cup break with a defeat and opened the second half of the season with two losses on the bounce. However, they finally turned things around last weekend and will be hoping to win two consecutive league games for the first time this season.
Currently, Pirates sit eighth on the standings with 22 points, while Stellenbosch are in 14th place, only a superior goal difference keeping them away from the relegation spot. The two teams drew 1-1 in the first round of the season back in August, and both will be looking to get the upper hand this time around.
Pirates will be led by Jose Riveiro, while Steve Barker will be in charge of Stellenbosch. Both teams have named their starting lineups, and kick-off is scheduled for 15:30.
