Pirates have lost three of their last five matches in all competitions. They were knocked out of the CAF Champions League and lost the Nedbank Cup final.
A 3-2 second-leg loss to Pyramids FC saw Bucs exit the CAF Champions League at the semi-final stage. A 1-0 home league loss to Sekhukhune United ended their title hopes.
Pirates beat Kaizer Chiefs and Golden Arrows 2-1 in the two PSL matches before the Nedbank Cup final. In Saturday’s showpiece, they were beaten 2-1 by Chiefs as they missed out on a domestic double.
Coach Jose Riveiro is without two players due to injury. Defenders Olisa Ndah and Thabiso Sesane will play no part in the match.
There could be some rotation to the XI. Tshegofatso Mabasa could be handed a start up front.
