Looking ahead to the visit by City, Pirates assistant coach Mandla Ncikazi said the abandonment of their match against Arrows was a blessing in disguise as it gave players much needed rest.
“We are happy that we had an opportunity to rest our players a bit so that they recover. Our opponents are very difficult, we lost against them in Cape Town but we are well prepared. We know who we are facing and we are prepared to get three points”
City, who have lost their last two matches against Magesi and Chippa United, come to Johannesburg looking to complete a league double over Pirates as they beat them in the first round.
Elsewhere, Sundowns will have revenge on their minds when they host TS Galaxy in what promises to be an exciting encounter at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday evening.
