Orlando Pirates taking Kaizer Chiefs match like an ordinary PSL encounter - Maela

The Bucs left-back has urged his teammates to be calm as they prepare for the Soweto derby

Orlando Pirates defender Innocent Maela has explained why they are not taking their clash with arch-rivals Kaizer Chiefs as an opportunity for revenge.

The two Premier Soccer League (PSL) giants are set to lock horns on Saturday afternoon and Maela has stated that the last weekend’s Telkom Knockout Cup defeat to Amakhosi is a thing of the past as they just want the three points.

“We are feeling strong, we are feeling confident and we know that if we keep going, working hard in training, and implementing our game model results will come our way,” Maela told SuperSport TV on Thursday.
