Orlando Pirates' CAF opponents, Horoya AC, seem to be pleased with the work they have made in their training in Mzansi during the course of the week in preparation of this evening's match at the Orlando Stadium.

The Guinean outfit will play against the Buccaneers as Group B matches of this year's Champions League resume this evening.

Speaking to the media, Horoya coach Patrice Neveu said he had an idea of the style of play used by Milutin Sredojevic's side. 

"In relation to the match, we are aware that we will meet a formidable opponent and I have an idea of their game organisation. We are four in the pool and we come here to make a better result possible.We are aware that the match will be difficult but we also have our arguments to make," said the coach, as quoted on the club's website.

"The draw against Espérance de Tunis in Conakry was not a good result and we must be aware of it in future matches to get the best results possible. The group is very close after the first day and Orlando Pirates had a good result in Zimbabwe," added the coach.

The coach said his side will look to repeat the team's achievements last year when they beat Pirates' PSL opponents, and former champions of the continental competition, Mamelodi Sundowns.
