CAF Champions League
Teams: Orlando Pirates v MC Alger
Date: 09 April 2025
Venue: Orlando Stadium
The Buccaneers enter this evening's encounter with a 1-0 advantage after last week's first leg in Algiers.
As a result, Jose Riveiro's men are the only team left in the competition yet to suffer a defeat this season.
Pirates did not have a lot of rest for the encounter, as they were involved in Betway Premiership action on Saturday after defeating Polokwane City 1-0.
Alger, meanwhile, will have to overcome their poor form on the road if they are to stand a chance of winning.
The Algerians have failed to win their last four away matches in the tournament, which includes three draws and a loss.
Here's how they line up:
Orlando Pirates: Chaine, Van Rooyen, Sibisi, Xoki, Mbokazi, Hotto, Makhaula, Mbatha, Nkota, Mofokeng, Makgopa
Subs: Buthelezi, Maela, Mako, Shandu, Rasebotja, Ndlondlo, Maswanganyi, Radiopane, Mabasa
