Orlando Pirates vs Marumo Gallants Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel & squad news

The Buccaneers are set for yet another top-flight test as Bahlabane Ba Ntwa visit. The league leaders enjoy a 13-match unbeaten streak across all competitions, and this is a testament to how solid they have become since they last lost a game. Indeed, their last defeat came in the CAF Champions League when Saint-Eloi Lupopo eliminated them in a post-match penalty shootout contest in October 2025.

Orlando Pirates will welcome Marumo Gallants for a Premier Soccer League showdown on February 14 at the Orlando Amstel Arena.

This is a chance for the Soweto giants to solidify their position at the top of the table because a win will see them go six points ahead of Mamelodi Sundowns. Bucs' title race rivals – Downs and Kaizer Chiefs – will be concentrating on the CAF duties this weekend.

Here, GOAL brings you all the details you need to know about how to watch the match between Orlando Pirates and Marumo Gallants, including TV channels, streaming details, team news, and more.

    Head-to-head and recent form

    Pirates head into the Valentine's Day showdown in impressive form; in fact, their last loss in the league came against the Gallants in August 2025.

    On the other hand, Gallants have endured a poor run; they are yet to win a game in open play since they beat Stellenbosch 4-0 in a Carling Knockout duel in October last year.

    Bahlabane Ba Ntwa's last win in a league game came against struggling Chippa United on October 19, 2025. Alexandre Lafitte's side has also lost the last five games across all competitions.
