DStv Premiership

Venue: Peter Mokaba Stadium

Pirates were one of only four teams who were in action over the weekend, as they played to a goalless draw against Sundowns in the MTN8 semi-final first-leg.
The Buccaneers returned to winning ways in the league just before the FIFA break after beating TS Galaxy 2-0, although sit five points behind league leaders Sundowns, who are not involved in league action this week.
Sekhukhune, meanwhile, will be desperate to get some form as their winless run extended to six matches after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Stellenbosch before the international break.
Babina Noko are precariously lying second-from-bottom on the standings with seven points and will be looking to get out of the relegation zone.
