Pirates face Polokwane City selection headache

The Buccaneers will travel to Limpopo to face an unpredictable Polokwane City in the Premiership on Saturday afternoon (3pm kick-off), with the Algerians coming for blood in next Wednesday's return leg at the Orlando Stadium after losing 1-0 in front of their capacity crowd on Tuesday night.

At least Saturday's weather conditions are showing some calmness in Polokwane, with temperatures set to not exceed 23 degrees Celsius.

In fact, from midday, it should be cloudy, with a 60% chance of rain in the afternoon. That should help Pirates after their travels to North Africa and back, where they had to work overtime to overcome Alger with a solo Mohau Nkota strike in the 65th minute.

Nkota had only been on the field for five minutes, after replacing Kabelo Dlamini, when he scored the all-important away goal for the Soweto giants.
