This weekend's Soweto Derby has South African football fans salivating as Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates prepare to lock horns for the first time in 2018/19, but will there be a winner?

The encounter has been labelled the 'Drawby' by some fans in recent years as goals – and wins – somewhat dried up, with both teams also now in the midst of a long-term trophy drought.
Of the last 18 Absa Premiership clashes between South Africa's biggest clubs, just seven have ended with one team taking three points, while six of them have ended without even a single goal.
Last time out broke that trend as four goals were scored in Pirates' 3-1 victory over Steve Komphela's side, and Giovanni Solinas will be eager to try and reverse that scoreline and potentially even lead the Glamour Boys to the top of the table if other results go their way.
Bidvest Wits face Highlands Park this evening, and if they are beaten at Bidvest Stadium then the Glamour Boys could go top on goal difference should the goal swing change significantly enough. The Buccaneers, on the other hand, can go top as long as they win and the Clever Boys drop points.
The two sides know that three points is what their fans will be wanting come tomorrow, and will be buoyed by the fact that FNB Stadium is a sold out affair for the 15h30 kick off in Soweto.
