The Brazilians will move closer to log leaders Kaizer Chiefs if they beat the Buccaneers on Tuesday

Orlando Pirates coach Josef Zinnbauer attempted to deflect the spotlight from his team and said the pressure will be on defending Premier Soccer League champions Mamelodi Sundowns when the two meet on Tuesday.

“We have no big pressure. Sundowns have to fight for the title and need the points more than us‚” said German mentor Zinnbauer ahead of the match that kicks off at 6pm. “We watched the game and we have the information‚ we have analysed the squad. Pitso is a good coach‚ one of the best in this country. For us it is important we do what we do.“But Sundowns have such a big squad and my feeling was Pitso will change and will give players like [Andile] Jali and [Tebogo] Langerman and other players … maybe he saved the energy for us.
