After suffering a shock 3-0 loss to Saint-Eloi Lupopo in the CAF Champions League, Abdeslam Ouaddou's Orlando Pirates have a Betway Premiership game to train for.
It was a day to forget for the Sea Robbers. To keep the dream alove, the Buccaneers must now pull off a 4-0 victory in the return leg at Orlando Stadium this weekend.
Before that crucial tie, the Buccaneers will look to regain confidence when they host Polokwane City in the Betway Premiership on Wednesday night at 19:30.
Amabhakabhaka have shown the real business in the league. Following two opening shock defeats to Sekhukhune United and Polokwane City, Bucs responded with five wins on the trot.
