FANS should ready themselves for an early humdinger as Orlando Pirates face the menacing Mamelodi Sundowns in the MTN8 semi-finals.
Both sides registered victories over the weekend: Bucs beat Polokwane City 2-0 at Orlando Stadium, whilst Downs dimmed Richards Bay lights, with a 4-0 drubbing on Sunday in Pretoria.
With the 2025/26 PSL season fixture still undecided, both clubs looks like they mean business and made their intentions clear.
Another draw sees Stellies FC who beat AmaZulu 3-2, in Cape Town on Sunday evening (after extra time), progressing to semis and having a date with Sekhukhune United, who beat TS Galaxy 3-2.
PSL will confirm dates, venues.
