Orlando Pirates head coach Jose Riveiro has accepted the favourites tag going to the Nedbank Cup final against Sekhukhune United at the Loftus Stadium in Pretoria on Saturday evening.
After being fired by both Swallows and AmaZulu within a year, coach Brandon Truter has bounced back to silence his critics.
An incident-free Nedbank Cup final between Orlando Pirates and Sekhukhune United is what the Premier Soccer League (PSL) is targeting today at the sold-out Loftus Versfeld stadium in Pretoria in the evening (18h00).
Should Orlando Pirates defeat Sekhukhune United in the Nedbank Cup final on Saturday, Innocent Maela will become the club's first captain in more than a decade to lead them to two trophies in the same season.
Former Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Teko Modise believes the Buccaneers are the only side strong enough to challenge the Brazilians for the title next season.
