Orlando Pirates' next CAF Champions League opponents have spoken ahead of their clash this coming weekend.
Following the upset they caused in last season's Champions League against the Soweto giants, Jwaneng Galaxy are leaving no stone unturned in preparing for Saturday's match in this year's preliminary stages of the competition.
The match is scheduled for the Botswana National Stadium in Gaborone and the club's head coach Morena Ramoreboli says his team will be ready against a highly competitive Bucs side.
Last year, Galaxy defeated the Buccaneers 5-4 on penalties after their two-legged tie finished 1-1.
"We are preparing, and I think preparing for Pirates will always be difficult because on the day they can bring a different group of players who can still give the same performance as those that have been playing regularly," said Ramoreboli, speaking exclusively to the Siya crew.
"But at the same time, they know that they are playing a game that they will really need to do well in, and maybe get positive results. With them having been playing, it has given us a clear picture of what to expect from them. They are a very competitive team. Like you have mentioned something very important, they have played more than 10 games, very competitive matches, including the matches they played in Spain," the coach said.
