South African Premier News

Orlando Pirates will host Stellenbosch at Orlando Stadium on Wednesday in the Betway Premiership, as two of last season's top three teams go head-to-head as they look to build momentum after sticky starts.

The first legs of the MTN8 semi-finals take place this Saturday, August 16, with Orlando Pirates hosting Mamelodi Sundowns at Orlando Stadium at 3pm CAT, and Stellenbosch face Sekhukhune United at 6pm.

As the end of South Africa's Betway Premiership transfer window draws closer, Mamelodi Sundowns are the club with the most pertinent questions hanging over them.

Orbit College won promotion to the Betway Premiership through the PSL Promotion/Relegation playoffs at the end of last season, but their fairytale journey has been overshadowed by legal drama outside of their control.

Orlando Pirates will kick off their first Betway Premiership season under Abdeslam Ouaddou at Orlando Stadium on Saturday, with visitors Sekhukhune United providing a tricky test.
