Orlando Pirates will have three of their most influential players available when they take on Mamelodi Sundowns. Thalente Mbatha, Patrick Maswanganyi, and Relebohile Mofokeng were all walking a suspension tightrope but managed to avoid bookings in their recent goalless draw against Stellenbosch. With their availability confirmed, coach Jose Riveiro will be relieved as he prepares for the high-stakes showdown on Sunday, March 16.

Meanwhile, Monnapule Saleng continues to be the subject of intense speculation regarding his future. The former PSL Player of the Year has struggled to replicate his outstanding 2022/23 form, yet his talent remains undeniable. With past heroics against Sundowns still fresh in fans’ minds, could he step up once again and silence his doubters?
