Orlando Pirates are set to play TS Galaxy on Tuesday in the Premier Soccer League, which will be staged at the Orlando Stadium.

The Buccaneers are fresh from their convincing 4-0 win and 7-0 victory in aggregate against Lioli in the CAF Champions League's first preliminary round. It explains why they will be hoping to get their fifth consecutive PSL win in the midweek outing.

However, it will not be a walk in the park for the Bucs, who are playing against a team that is sixth on the table with four wins, a draw, and two losses.

Ahead of the match, the Soweto giants have opened up about the condition of the players and their star attacker, Relebohile Mofokeng, who has been nursing an injury.

Will Mofokeng play against the Rockets?

“Pirates have maintained their commendable form of late as they secured a spot in the next round of the Champions League with an emphatic 4-0 win at home to Lesotho champions Lioli on Saturday.

It was their sixth straight win in all competitions, and their return to the Premiership presents a chance to take their league-winning streak to five games,” the Sea Robbers' media team said in a statement.

“They’ve collected 12 league points during this stretch of victories without conceding and found their way to eighth place in the standings, having occupied the lower half of the table in the initial stages of their campaign.

“Despite finding their stride in recent weeks, the Buccaneers’ free-scoring exploits elsewhere are yet to be transferred to their home league fixtures. They have found the net just twice in three league games played at Orlando Stadium, going down 1-0 to Sekhukhune before producing similar scorelines in their favour in claiming three points against each of Stellenbosch and Orbit College,” Bucs continued.

“Following another tight win on the road in their most recent Premiership outing, the Soweto Giants could be tasked with producing more of the same grit against a stubborn Galaxy outfit.  

“They have some injury concerns heading into the fixture, with Relebohile Mofokeng among the doubtful starters for Tuesday’s match after sitting out the clash against Lioli,” they concluded.
