Golden Arrows vs Marumo Gallants Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel & squad news

Straight from losing 3-1 to Orlando Pirates in a Premier Soccer League match last week, Abafana Bes'thende coach Manqoba Mngqithi might want to make a few changes to correct where they went wrong against the Buccaneers.

Central defender Ayanda Jiyane scored an own goal against Pirates and would not want that to weigh him down. No Arrows defenders are suspended for this game.

Arrows possible XI: Ngcobo, Madonsela, Jiyane, Cele, Mantshiyane, Dlamini, Cisse, Ayabulela, Ndlovu, Dion, Karelse

Bahlabane ba Ntwa travelled to Durban from Bloemfontein without midfielder Simo Luthuli, who is suspended for this game and will not face his former team, Arrows.

Club captain Edgar Manaka has been struggling for game time, and it will be seen if coach Alexandre Lafitte will give him playing minutes.

Gallants possible XI: Arubi, Mhlongo, Agnikoi, Sikhosana, Mabotja, Bance, Nhlapo, Mpambaniso, Msendami, Adetu, Motloung

Arrows have won three of their last five Premier Soccer League matches, while losing twice.

Their opponents Gallants have recorded just one victory, losing three times and drawing once in their last five PSL games.

To reach the Carling Knockout semi-finals, Abafana Bes'thende first beat Sekhukhune United in the Round of 16, before dumping TS Galaxy in the quarter-final.

Bahlabane ba Ntwa have been impressing in this tournament, first knocking out Mamelodi Sundowns and then thumping Stellenbosch 4-0 in the last eight.
