THE King Zwelithini Stadium will be the stage for one of the standout midweek fixtures in the Betway Premiership when two of the most inform and entertaining sides, Lamontville Golden Arrows and Orlando Pirates, lock horns tonight at 7.30pm.
Both teams come into this encounter playing some of the most attractive football in the country — a blend of tactical structure and creative freedom that has delighted their supporters.
It’s a meeting between two coaches who believe in expressive, attacking football: Manqoba Mngqithi’s fluid Golden Arrows and Abdeslam Ouaddou’s revitalised Pirates.
Arrows are enjoying a fine spell of form after dispatching Marumo Gallants 2-0 at the same venue over the weekend — their fifth win in six matches across all competitions.
The victory has propelled them to the edge of the top four, with their confidence growing with each outing.
At the heart of their resurgence is their potent attack, led by Sede Dion and Isaac Cisse, who have been a nightmare for opposition defenders.
