Plan For Pirates: ‘We’ll Have To Be Very Careful’

Plan For Pirates: ‘We’ll Have To Be Very Careful’

Sekhukhune United celebrate a goal during the DStv Premiership 2022/23 match between Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates held at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on 4 October 2022

A plan has been devised to stop Orlando Pirates as the penultimate fixtures for the 2022/23 DStv Premiership season are set to take place this weekend.

The Buccaneers have been one of the teams on form, having won six and drawn one in their last seven matches in the league and have looked like they could potentially finish in second place to secure a spot in the CAF Champions League.

With the team's next fixture against Sekhukhune United, Babina Noko coach Brandon Truter has hinted at the strategy his side aims to use against Bucs on Saturday. 

"Pirates is a team on form, a team I think now is on seven wins in a row, unbeaten in their last (10) games. So, yeah, it's a task, it's a huge team, game, task that we are facing going to Orlando Stadium and wanting the result, a result of course in terms of securing us a spot in the top eight. So, we'll have to be very careful and at the same time be very organised and plan accordingly to get the result against Pirates," said Truter, speaking through the club's media department.

"I'm not thinking about the final yet, it is a league game and we want to do well bearing in mind also that the first round game we won at home and I'm sure they would want to overturn the result at their home as well. But for us, it's going to be important to prepare well. Firstly, we have to manage the fatigue, the injuries, and of course the suspensions we have and put the best team on the park," the coach said.
