Black Leopards are preparing themselves for a tough Telkom KO fixture this weekend. They will host Orlando Pirates at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane tomorrow evening.

The draw for the Telkom Knockout Competition was held at the Premier Soccer League offices on Wednesday last week.

In an interview with the former Leopards playmaker, Khethowakhe Masuku, he will give the Leopards defence a tough time if given a chance. Masuku left Lidoda Duvha for the Buccaneers at the end of last season, following the expiry of his contract with the only Absa Premiership League side in Limpopo.

Black Leopards are still to lose a league match at home this season. They drew 3-3 with Supersport United at the same venue two weeks ago.

In the other matches that will also be played tomorrow, Maritzburg United will entertain Moroka Swallows at the Harry Gwala Stadium in Pietermaritzburg. Free State Stars will play against Golden Arrows at the Goble Park Stadium at Bethlehem in the Free State. Supersport United will pay a visit to Ajax Cape Town at the Athlone Stadium in Cape Town.

In the only match that will be played this evening, Bidvest Wits will host Kaizer Chiefs.

Sunday’s fixtures are: Chippa United vs Bloemfontein Celtic, Amazulu vs Platinum Stars and Mamelodi Sundowns vs the University of Pretoria.
