Teams: Orlando Pirates v Bloemfontein Celtic
Date: 02 March 2021
Venue: Orlando Stadium
Orlando Pirates will aim to pick up three points when they host Bloemfontein Celtic in a DStv Premiership clash on Tuesday.
The Buccaneers are currently fourth on the standings having won seven of their 18 league matches this campaign.
The Soweto side also come off a morale-boosting 3-1 win over Maritzburg United in the Nedbank Cup this weekend although in their last league game they drew 1-1 with SuperSport United.
Pirates will be without Thabang Monare for the clash as the midfielder picked up his fourth booking of the season against Maritzburg and will therefore serve a one-game suspension.
Celtic, meanwhile, are 11th in the standings having won four of their 17 games while they have only scored 17 goals in the process.
Siwelele, who come off a 1-0 defeat to TS Galaxy in their last outing, will be without the services of Cyril Lingwati and Tshepo Rikhotso through suspension.
