Jose Riveiro head coach of Orlando Pirates during the media day at Rand Stadium in Johannesburg on Tuesday. Last season, the Buccaneers and Downs met four times, with the Pretoria outfit registering two wins, while Bucs Pirates won one game and the other one ended in a draw.
The sole victory for the Sea Robbers was in the second leg of the MTN8 semi-finals, which they won 3-0 before going on to lift the trophy. Sundowns avenged that defeat in the league encounter recently, beating Bucs 1-0 in a DStv Premiership tie last month. “We know each other very well. There is big respect between us in both directions. That means that we both spend time analysing each other. It’s nice to play against them because they are a team that is asking many different questions during the game, as we do,” said Riveiro this week.“It is also attractive for them to play Orlando Pirates. Every time we finish these types of games, both teams are better teams.
