Squads & Team News
Pirates will host Swallows without suspended attacking midfielder Vincent Pule, who has been one of their best performers this season.
The player has managed two goals in seven league games this season and is out after accumulating four yellow cards.
Also absent is forward Tshegofatso Mabasa, who is the team’s joint highest-scorer so far this season with two league goals, just like Pule.
A foot injury has sidelined Mabasa, who has missed Pirates’ last two games, after also being out at the start of the season due to injury.
Another striker Zakhele Lepasa will also not take part in this old Soweto derby, and is out with an ankle strain.
