Oudddou eyes comeback as Pirates chase CAF redemption

October 24, 2025

ABDESLAM Ouaddou is set to take charge of one of his most defining games of the season, and he hopes his troops will be equal to the task - and score goals.

- MIHLALI BALEKA

Pirates have been the most active team in the top flight since the start of the season. As such, they've already appeased the Ghosts by winning the first trophy of the campaign - the MTN8 - which was the club's record-extending fourth in all competitions.

But for all their early success, Pirates have bigger fish to fry: the Betway Premiership and the CAF Champions League. They've impressed in the league so far, winning their last six games, including a 1-0 victory over Polokwane City at home on Wednesday night.

They are caught between a rock and a hard place on the continent, though. After cruising to the second and final round of the preliminary qualifiers, Pirates stuttered in the first leg away to Saint Eloi Lupopo last Sunday, losing 3-0.
