Orlando Pirates players have work to do today. Polokwane City will face the hosts in Limpopo, but the visiting team's keeper will be absent.
DSTV Premiership Schedule: Polokwane City VS Orlando Pirates
The Sea Robbers finished second in May and are aiming to play in next season's CAF Champions League.
A win in Polokwane this afternoon would be a good step.
In their last five games, the Pirates have one draw, two losses, and two wins. On the other hand, Polokwane have 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses.
Merci Buthelezi to miss match
Meanwhile, one of the club's key players is likely to miss this match. On Thursday night, goalkeeper Buthelezi was hijacked and taken hostage.
The good news is that the 25-year-old is safe. Pirate media official Thandi Melafe confirmed that Buthelezi was attacked in Thokoza, Gauteng.
Melafe said the Nkutu-born player needed to be given space to recover from the traumatic experience.
Sifo Chain or Richard Ofori will likely start in goal this afternoon. The match will start at 15:30 at Peter Mokaba Stadium.
