    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Pirates are bidding for a fourth straight MTN8 title as coach Abdeslam Ouaddou seeks to continue with the cup kings reputation carved out by Jose Riveiro.

    Defending this trophy would help Ouaddou's doubters who are yet to show full trust in the Moroccan following a rough start to the season. 

    The Buccaneers will be up against Stellenbosch who are pushing for their second ever major trophy in top-flight league football after winning the Carling Knockout two seasons ago.

    WHAT NEXT?

    Sunday's Premier Soccer League clash between Pirates and Chippa United will be the Buccaneers last match before they release players for 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers and return straight into the MTN8 final.

    Stellenbosch have Mamelodi Sundowns on their schedule on Saturday before making the trip to Mbombela.
