Orlando Pirates have fresh legs for the Soweto derby - Fadlu Davids

The Buccaneers’ sensational rebirth under Josef Zinnbauer has seen them being mentioned as serious title contenders

Orlando Pirates assistant coach Fadlu Davids says they will enter the Saturday’s Soweto derby against Kaizer Chiefs with fresh legs after being inactive last weekend, and stressed that they do not consider themselves as part of the Premier Soccer League (PSL) title race.

Pirates were not involved in competitive action last weekend after being knocked out of the Nedbank Cup by Bidvest Wits earlier this month.

They now face a Kaizer Chiefs side fresh from exiting the Nedbank Cup after being knocked out by Highlands Park last Saturday.
