Orlando Pirates and Cape Town City will both be in desperate search of a win when they clash in an Absa Premiership encounter at the Orlando Stadium on Saturday.

Pirates suffered a 4-3 defeat to Bidvest Wits in their last encounter that leaves the Buccaneers 10th place on the PSL standings.

They will hope a return to their home venue will bring them that winning feeling as the last time they played at the Orlando Stadium they ran out 2-1 winners against Chippa United.

Interim head coach Rhulani Mokwena insists the Soweto giants are improving as they look to work their way up the PSL table.

The Citizens, meanwhile, are making Benni McCarthy tear his hair out in frustration this season.

City have played to four draws in six matches league matches and McCarthy has made it known to his players that he is not happy with some individual performances.

Forward Kermit Erasmus has been one of the few players to impress though and will be looking to get his name on the score sheet for the fourth consecutive match.

The game at the Orlando Stadium kicks off at 3pm.
