Pirates will be thankful for the narrow 2-1 lead heading into the clash on Saturday 4 April having given the away goal as a result of a Happy Jele own goal.

The forward who featured in the match, but was later substituted for Thandani Ntshumayelo, informed the Siya crew that having played against the Ugandan outfit will give them the edge heading into the second leg.

"It's always tricky playing against teams you don't know much about," Jumbo told the crew.

"As players it makes it easier for us when we know the team we are playing against. Our first match allowed us to get an impression of them, now we will be better prepared in our second match.

"We also know that they were missing some of their key players so it will definitely make the second match more interesting," noted the Bucs striker.

Pirates' goals in the first-leg were scored by defender Rooi Mahamutsa and Lehlohonolo Majoro.
