Maritzburg United vs Orlando Pirates Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel, squad news

Orlando Pirates' bid to stop their Premier Soccer League slide is facing a tricky test when they collide with second-from-bottom Maritzburg United at Harry Gwala Stadium on Saturday.

The Buccaneers are desperate to keep themselves right on course in the title challenge after winning just one match in their last five outings where they have collected just five points out of a possible 15.

Now they come up against a Maritzburg side that held log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns to a 1-1 draw, before recently beating Kaizer Chiefs 2-0.

While Bucs would want to avoid a shocker by the Team of Choice, they are also keen to go up from position six where they are currently sitting on the log.
