Orlando Pirates fans face an anxious wait for their next Betway Premiership action. When will the Sea Robbers be back on the pitch?
All of Orlando Pirates’ remaining fixtures
Pirates have a lengthy period to reflect on a somewhat disappointing draw with Kaizer Chiefs. The Glamour Boys took the lead on Sunday through Pule Mmodi, and Mike Sebelebele equalised with 15 minutes left on the clock. It’s not a horrendous result, but they’ll be usurped at the summit if Sundowns beat Polokwane on Wednesday. The Sea Robbers meet Stellenbosch in the Cape Winelands on Tuesday, 5 May. Kickoff is at 19:30.
- Tuesday, 5 May vs Stellenbosch FC, Athlone Stadium – 19:30
- Saturday, 9 May vs Magesi FC, Seshego Stadium – 20:00
- Saturday, 16 May vs Durban City, Orlando Stadium – 15:00
- Saturday, 23 May vs Orbit College, Royal Bafokeng Stadium – 15:00
Mofokeng’s Orlando Pirates numbers don’t lie
Meanwhile, 21-year-old winger-cum playmaker Rele Mofokeng is expected to play a central role for Bafana Bafana at the World Cup in the Americas. Not a day goes by that publications aren’t speculating as to where he might be playing his club football next season. If he shines in the Americas during the 2026 World Cup, there could be some big-name suitors. Mofokeng has 10 goals and seven assists from 23 league appearances this term. Would now be a good time to sell to a wealthy suitor in Europe?
