2nd in FIFA World Cup Qualifying - CAF2023 Fixtures



A month and a half after Orlando Pirates suffered a frustrating defeat away at Cape Town City in the Betway Premiership, the Buccaneers will host the return PSL fixture on February 22.

As Orlando Pirates prepare to face Mamelodi Sundowns in a title race six-pointer a week after beating Kaizer Chiefs 1-0 in a thrilling Soweto Derby, there is still no doubt that the latter leads the way in terms of fanfare.

Mamelodi Sundowns will welcome Orlando Pirates to Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria on Saturday February 8, in what is effectively a South African Premiership title race six-pointer.

After a thrilling Soweto Derby on Saturday, South African Premiership fans' attention now turns to the Tshwane derby between SuperSport United and Mamelodi Sundowns in Atteridgeville on Wednesday February 5.

Fresh off Saturday's Soweto Derby win over Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates face another important Premiership fixture as they visit Sekhukhune United on Wednesday.

Casual observers of South Africa's Betway Premiership (AKA the PSL) may be surprised to see Sekhukhune United, a team relatively new onto their radars, in fourth place in the standings.

There will be more than pride on the line for Orlando Pirates when they take on Kaizer Chiefs on February 1 at FNB Stadium in the first Soweto Derby of the year.

The PSL's biggest fixture is back as struggling Kaizer Chiefs take on title-chasing Orlando Pirates at the FNB Stadium on Feb. 1. The Buccaneers have won the last three Soweto derbies, so can the Glamour Boys end their run?
