Nedbank Cup: Predicting Orlando Pirates' XI to face Marumo Gallants

The 35-year-old goalkeeper is a likely starter despite Richard Ofori being back from injury.With Gallants being strong opponents who have scored 10 goals in their last five games, the Pirates coaches might opt for someone who has been a regular like Mpontshane.

GOALKEEPER - Siyabonga Mpontshane 

He is someone difficult to drop. Shandu is arguably Pirates' best signing of the season and has been in top form.

RIGHT-BACK - Bandile Shandu

Mako could be facing a busy evening in which he might have to deal with former Kaizer Chiefs speedy winger Joseph Malongoane.

LEFT-BACK - Paseka Mako

Facing a team on a four-match winning streak, the Nigeria international is a player the Buccaneers cannot afford to leave out.

CENTRE-BACK - Olisa Ndah

The Soweto giants' skipper was rested in the Soweto Derby and might return to partner Ndah at the heart of the defence against the Nedbank Cup defending champions.

CENTRE-BACK - Happy Jele

Motshwari's experience is what Pirates need in this match and he provides that.The 30-year-old will be preparing for a midfield battle against the likes of Miguel Timm, Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo and Celimpilo Ngema.

CENTRAL MIDFIELDER - Ben Motshwari 

The Pirates coaches usually prefer Monare to partner Motshwari in central midfield and in most games they have thrived. He contributed an assist for Kwame Peprah in the Soweto Derby against Kaizer Chiefs last weekend.

CENTRAL MIDFIELDER - Thabang Monare

While Lorch has not been at his best this season, he is a player who can turn things around at any moment.

RIGHT MIDFIELDER - Thembinkosi Lorch

The speedy Namibian is one of Pirates' best-performing players this season.He could be facing Mpho Mvelase who has rejuvenated himself since his return to the Premier Soccer League.

LEFT MIDFIELDER - Deon Hotto

His 76th-minute introduction in the Soweto Derby saw Pirates being a bit improved in attack although they were unlucky to equalise.

ATTACKING MIDFIELDER - Linda Mntambo 

The Ghanaian forward appears to have adapted to PSL football and has become someone Pirates can rely on for goals.He is high on confidence after scoring his first-ever Soweto Derby goal last weekend.

CENTRE-FORWARD - Kwame Peprah
