“They [Arrows] are very good on transition. One of the probabilities is that they will try to recover the ball and run into spaces with their quick wingers.” – Orlando Pirates coach told Sowetan.

“They have skillful players who can create scoring opportunities with two, three passes. They are a difficult team and we’ll need to be at our best in order to get three points.
