Kick-off is at 3:30pm on Saturday (10 May).

It's sure to be a stellar Nedbank Cup final between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates on Saturday 10 May. 

Moses Mabhida Stadium will come alive with a sold-out crowd.

“It’s a Soweto Derby, two big clubs in a cup final. It’s one of a kind and we hardly get this type of special in our football… a lot is riding on this fixture.”

Pirates will be looking to defend their title, as outgoing coach Jose Riveiro will hope to end his term on a high note.

Chiefs, on the other hand, have a lot to prove as they hope to end their decade-long drought.

“It could be six final wins in six finals for him [Riveiro]… it’ll be very important to continue that winning culture for Orlando Pirates… but Chiefs could also pitch up on the day, have nothing to lose and throw everything at it.”
