WHEN IS THE SOWETO DERBY
The first Soweto derby between old rivals Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will be staged at the Dobsonville Stadium on Sunday, November 16.
Bucs will then host Amakhosi on Sunday, March 29, at the UJ Soweto Campus.
Last season, the Glamour Boys did a double over the Sea Robbers, winning 2-1 and 1-0 respectively; the latter will be aiming at avenging the losses.

WHAT NEXT?
Orlando Pirates hope their new attacker, Joy Manana, who has been dubbed the 'new Mofokeng', will emulate the Bafana Bafana youngster and deliver for the DDC team before getting a chance with the senior team.
However, Amakhosi are targeting one thing: going all the way once again to get crowned.
