Saleng to return for Orlando Pirates?

Pirates claimed a narrow 1-0 midweek win against Babina Noko thanks to a goal from marauding right-back Thabiso Monyane. Chiefs, meanwhile, edged a five-goal thriller against Cape Town Spurs with Edson Castillo, Ranga Chivaviro and Christian Saile all on the score sheet.
