Tonight – Bidvest Wits host Orlando Pirates at Moses Mabhida stadium in Durban Saturday at 20:15.

The Johannesburg titans will wrestle each other far away from their respective backyards. These kinds of arrangements where a host abandons home territory and drag the opponent to a distant land are becoming common in the PSL.

In any day, the “Clever Boys” (Wits) are fierce side to lock horns with. They have a stable and solid PSL club backed up by consistent technical team that seldom changes.

Contrary, Pirates have been through a disruptive whirlwind without getting positive results. Compounding their woes was the resignation by coach Milutin “Micho”Sredojevic who set tongues wagging after leaving the Soweto giants rather shockingly.

Caretaker coach Rhulani Mokwena finally broke the jinx by narrowly defeating Chippa United last Saturday in Soweto. Could the Buccaneers” (Pirates) have turned the corner?

Today’s game against Wits either aids the Buccaneers’ resurgence or bust the nascent bubble.
