Maela and Bucs ready for SuperSport: Orlando Pirates skipper Innocent Maela has narrated why they won’t have a special plan to contain familiar face Zakhele Lepasa when they host SuperSport United in a league tie at Orlando Stadium tonight.
Journalist
Lepasa, who scored a brilliant brace in SuperSport’s last game the 2-1 win over Golden Arrows almost two weeks ago, will be returning to Orlando Stadium for the first time since Pirates loaned him out to Matsatsantsa on the January transfer window. Before the start of the season, many tipped Pirates as the only side who had what it takes to challenge champions Mamelodi Sundowns in the title race. However, after winning the first trophy of the campaign, the MTN8, the wheel came off as Pirates now find themselves scrambling for the second spot in order to qualify for the CAF Champions League.
