The second leg fixtures in the MTN8 semi-final will both be played on Saturday, with Mamelodi Sundowns and Stellenbosch ahead of Orlando Pirates (on away goals) and Sekhukhune United respectively.
With the Major League Soccer (MLS) transfer window closing on Thursday, Minnesota United are racing against the clock to seal the signature of Orlando Pirates star Relebohile Mofokeng, a source told ESPN.
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.
