The 25-year-old wide man told the Siya crew a media conference at the Rand Stadium Johannesburg that the Bucs will take full advantage of the Kaizer Chiefs and Bafana Bafana shot-stopper absence when they lock horns at the Moses Mabhida.
"Khune is an important player for Chiefs and I'm sure without their star man in the team there will be some nerves. We are hoping the new goalkeeper will be unsettled by the occasion," said Klate.
"It's a Soweto derby plus it's a cup final so there we're hoping that throws off whoever will be in goal for them (Chiefs) for the match."

Having said that we have not prepared any different, and we are going to play as if Khune was in gaol. We won't do anything different, we still want to attack and take shots at goal, and we'll just wait and see how their goalkeeper will handle it, admitted the Pirates wide man.
