Mamelodi Sundowns vs Orlando Pirates Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel, squad news

Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates resume their bid for Nedbank Cup glory when they clash in a quarter-final match at Loftus Versfeld on Thursday.

Given the calibre of the other teams remaining in this tournament, it is a match dubbed the Nedbank Cup "final before the final" by Masandawana co-coach Rhulani Mokwena.

Sundowns are the defending champions of South Africa's premier knockout competition while Pirates are campaigning for a trophy they last clinched in 2014.
