Pirates have endured the most difficult period in their history, with no victories in 11 consecutive games. The Buccaneers' last win was their 1-0 victory over Chippa United in November.
Having drawn their past three Absa Premiership games under Kjell Jonevret, Ngobe is confident that Bucs will finally get their first victory under the Swedish coach when they play in the Nedbank Cup this weekend.
Pirates will be in East London on Sunday afternoon for their Nedbank Cup Last 32 match against third tier opponents at Sisa Dukashe Stadium.
"To tell you the truth, Pirates are going to advance to the Last 16 of the competition. I have looked at the way the coach (Jonevret) is trying to get the team to play and I am convinced. The way I see it, he wants all of his players to attack at the same time when they go forward and wanting them to do the same when they defend," Ngobe told the Siya crew.
"The only problem is that they struggle in the second half of games. For the second half of a game, they don't do the same things they did in the first half."
