Following their 1-1 draw with Platinum Stars last night, the Buccaneers have turned their focus to their next game, against Chiefs. Milutin Sredojevic and his team aim to return to winning ways against Chiefs, after failing to secure a victory in their last three games.
Their 1-0 loss against Bidvest Wits has been followed by consecutive draws against Polokwane City (2-2) and Dikwena (1-1), as the team seem to struggle to maintain the impressive form with which they started the season.

Apart from discussing the upcoming Soweto Derby, Mngomeni has also shared his experience of playing in the biggest game on the PSL calendar.
"One of the biggest problems with the derby is fear and nerves. Whoever gets into the free mood first will win in a derby. The longer you take to try and control the game, then, hey, you are in trouble. Pirates vs. Chiefs is always tense. You have to make sure that you are in the right mood by the time the game starts. For me, what worked was just being myself. For instance, I like to be rough. I don't like this new thing of having to wear a suit to go and play a football game. No, man! Those things make me mad. I should be free, wearing a tracksuit or something, so that by the time I get onto the grass, I'm already loose," said Mngomeni.
