Orlando Pirates will be eyeing nothing less than three points when they take on TS Galaxy in their penultimate DStv Premiership clash. 

DStv Premiership

Teams: TS Galaxy v Orlando Pirates

Date: 18 May 2024

Venue: Mbombela Stadium

Time: 15h00

The Buccaneers missed the chance to climb up to second spot last weekend after a surprise 1-0 defeat to Richards Bay at Orlando Stadium, after second-place Stellenbosch had lost to Moroka Swallows on the same day.

Stellenbosch, however, will be facing Mamelodi Sundowns this afternoon, which could help the Buccaneers in their quest for CAF Champions League football.

Jose Riveiro's charges come up against a Galaxy side, who can clinch a top-half finish with a favourable result this afternoon.

The Rockets only managed to secure a point last time out after drawing 1-1 with Cape Town City at the DHL Stadium.

Galaxy, however, have failed to beat Pirates in their last three attempts in the league, which included a 1-0 loss at Orlando Stadium in December last year.

Here's how they line-up:

TS Galaxy: Ntwari, Sebelebele, M.Mahlangu, Sanoka, Kabini, Mvelase, Mbatha, Dithejane, Khiba, Mojela, S.Mahlangu,

Subs: Kolak, Nurkovic, Seema, Mbunjana, Letsoenyo, Mongae, Semache, Mere,Zwane

Orlando Pirates: Chaine, Maela, Sibisi, Ndah, Monyane, Mbatha, Makhaula, Maswanganyi, Mofokeng, Dlamini, Mabasa

Subs: Buthelezi, Sesane, Hotto, Baloni, Ndlondlo, Kapinga, Pule, Otladisa, Makgopa
