Orlando Pirates were the first South African side to win the Caf Champions League back in 1995, and reached the final in 2013.

These Pirates and Stellenbosch players could all have a say in who finishes as runners-up in the DStv Premiership.Orlando Pirates and Stellenbosch FC are locked in a battle to finish as runners-up in this season’s DStv Premiership, and to qualify with champions Mamelodi Sundowns for next season’s Caf Champions League.

Pirates will finish off the season with the Nedbank Cup final against Mamelodi Sundowns on June 1, but will no doubt also be keen to do so as officially Masandawana’s closest rivals. A quietly spoken striker, Rayners does much of his talking on the pitch and did this nowhere more than when he bagged all five goals in a 5-0 win over Polokwane City on April 27.

Nine league goals for Pirates have shot him to the top of the DStv Premiership scoring charts, when added to the six he scored at the Birds.
