Live score: Orlando Pirates vs Sekhukhune United
The defending champions head into the encounter in impressive form, having won their last five matches across all competitions.
The Buccaneers have combined defensive solidity with attacking efficiency, with their recent 2-1 Soweto Derby victory over Kaizer Chiefs further boosting confidence in the camp.
Orlando Pirates also have a significant psychological advantage over Babina Noko, having beaten them three times already this season across the Betway Premiership and MTN8 semi-finals.
Abdeslam Ouaddou’s side have scored six goals against Sekhukhune in those encounters without conceding, underlining their dominance in this fixture.
However, Sekhukhune United coach Papi Zothwane is determined not to let previous results influence his team’s approach to the quarter-final.
Babina Noko are expected to make tactical adjustments to disrupt Pirates’ high-pressing attacking approach while maintaining defensive discipline and a compact structure.
The visitors will also be looking to end the Buccaneers’ impressive home run and secure a place in the Carling Knockout semi-finals.
