Arthur Zwane's AmaZulu face Orlando Pirates in a Betway Premiership clash without suspended Nkosikhona Radebe at Orlando Amstel Arena

Nkosikhona Radebe will not be part of the AmaZulu side to face Orlando Pirates in a top of the table clash tomorrow.

The defender has been impressive for Usuthu lately in their push for the third spot but due to suspension, he will watch the game from the stands at Orlando Amstel Arena in what will be a tight game.

Pirates are out to keep up with table toppers in Mamelodi Sundowns as they are a point behind the PSL defending champions with a game more.

The absence of Radebe is likely to weaken Arthur Zwane’s men not only at the Soweto venue but also for their grip on third spot.

Presently, Usuthu are fourth on the standings with 39 points with six behind third placed Kaizer Chiefs and a loss for them tomorrow may spell a further downslope for the Kwa-Zulu Natal team.

And that Pirates are out for three precious points for the title chase may make their third place push even harder to achieve.

The game starts at 3pm.
