Get ready for a fiery encounter in the Betway Premiership as Orlando Pirates lock horns with Stellenbosch FC!
The Soweto giants are buzzing after their continental triumph, while Stellenbosch will be eager to bounce back from their CAF Confederation Cup disappointment.
The Buccaneers are flying high, currently topping the domestic league table. Their recent victory against CR Belouizdad in the CAF Champions League is a testament to their attacking prowess. Young striker Mohau Nkota stole the show, bagging a brace thanks to the pinpoint passes of his strike partner, Relebohile Mofokeng.
This dynamic duo is firing on all cylinders, and Mo G believes Nkota’s stellar performance could even see him earn a national team call-up. Speaking on Soccer Betting News, the analyst had this to say, “I mean look, Hugo Broos is very open minded. He can see when a player is ready for the national team. I mean Nkota is a fierce player, he has got a very powerful left foot for his age. That boy has scored two beautiful goals since he has started playing for the Orlando Pirates first team, out of the area.”

Meanwhile, Stellenbosch are looking to redeem themselves after a disappointing showing in the CAF Confederation Cup. Their campaign fell short, and Steve Barker’s tactical changes, including deploying Jayden Adams in a deeper role, couldn’t turn the tide.
Indeed, this fixture holds extra significance due to the recent MTN8 final defeat Stellenbosch suffered at the hands of Pirates. Expect a determined Stellenbosch side to challenge the league leaders on their home turf.
Kick off at the Orlando Pirates Stadium in Soweto is set for 15h30 on Sunday, 01 December 2024.
