The Serb could not finish last season while at Kaizer Chiefs and is fighting to get back to full fitness. He is yet to make his Royal AM debut or combine with Ruzaigh Gamildien for the much-anticipated attacking partnership. Pirates are fretting about the fitness of Evidence Makgopa who is injured in what has prevented him from making his Buccaneers debut. Riveiro has been struggling to get the right striker, with Bienvenu Eva Nga and Kwame Peprah impotent in front of goal so far this campaign. That would make the Spaniard pin his hopes on Makgopa to try and find solutions upfront. Match PreviewWhile Pirates have managed to score two goals in three games, Royal AM have found the back of the net five times from the same number. Attention would be on the Buccaneers forwards to see if they will show some improvement on Wednesday.
They face Chippa who are 11th and appear to have found stability under Morgan Mamilla.

Royal AM vs Orlando Pirates Preview: Kick-off time, TV channel, Squad newsPSL 10:43 SAST 2022/08/17 After dropping points in their last two matches, the Buccaneers are out to turn around their results on Wednesday Orlando Pirates’ quest for redemption in the Premier Soccer League faces a stern test when they clash with Royal AM at Chatsworth Stadium on Wednesday. The Buccaneers arrive in KwaZulu-Natal on the backdrop of dropping five points in their last two outings.
That includes losing at home to Chippa United last weekend, a result which could potentially sap their confidence ahead of meeting Royal AM. Their KZN opponents are, however, limping after suffering a 3-1 defeat to Stellenbosch last Saturday. It will be a battle of wounded sides at Chatsworth Stadium and the Soweto giants are wary of the fact that they face a team that is usually stubborn in their own backyard. Already, there is much focus on Pirates coach Jose Riveiro as his ability to lead the Soweto giants is under scrutiny after failing to win either of their last two games. Riveiro will be keen to avoid leading the Buccaneers to a third-straight winless match in what would pile more pressure on him and his men.

Why coach Riveiro believes Orlando Pirates are doing ‘a fantastic job’“And also in the offensive phase to have the ball more than our opponents. When you have the ball you don’t face attacks. “We are solid in the transitions and the guys are building the confidence and trust, and getting used to playing together. “How good our players are is not up for discussion — now it’s about learning to play and perform together, and we are on the right track. ”Pirates — with two wins, two draws and a loss — are in third place on the early Premiership table, though with a game more than most of the teams around them.
But he has enough cover upfront in Bienvenu Eva Nga and Kwame Peprah who was an unused substitute against Stellenbosch. Klate has no suspension worries in his camp and that widens his selection pool ahead of this crucial fixture. But Chippa have an injury concern in winger Jemondre Dickens who is yet to recover from a long-term knee injury. Match PreviewThe log is yet to take shape but Pirates would be eager to avoid losing for the first time this season. The Soweto giants would want to stay close to log leaders Royal AM in this title race.
Also, Pirates’ defenders might be in for a busy evening to contain the Royal AM attackers who have already shown prowess so far in this campaign. Royal AM were on the road in their last two games and are back home where they kicked off the season with a 1-0 victory over Pirates’ bitter rivals Kaizer Chiefs. The last time the Buccaneers visited Royal AM, they were held to a 2-2 draw in the penultimate league game of last season back in May.

That is, however, subject to second-placed Richards Bay failing to beat basement side Maritzburg United on Saturday. But Chiefs would still fancy going on top despite playing two games more than the Brazilians. After starting the season on a slow note, with much doubt on coach Arthur Zwane, Chiefs have improved in recent games and have won their last three league encounters. That has placed them in a good position to go on top of the standings for the first time since the end of the 2019/20 season when they were pipped to the league title by Sundowns on the last day of the campaign.

But they now have an opportunity to claim maximum points in their own backyard on Sunday, after starting the campaign with a win over Swallows FC. They welcome Chippa who arrive at Orlando Stadium winless so far in this campaign. Chippa’s eagerness to claim victory could be what will causes problems for the Buccaneers. As the Gqeberha outfit is known for impatience with coaches, the Chilli Boys coach Daine Klate could already be feeling the heat which would make him go into this match with a sense of desperation. Klate will be returning to the club where he flourished during his playing days.
Attacker Khama Billiat is uncertain, having missed the last five games with a knee injury. Happy Mashiane and Erick Mathoho could be selected after also battling fitness issues in recent games. Chippa goalkeeper Lloyd Kazapua is sure to start following Sipho Chaine’s departure to Orlando Pirates. The Chilli Boys have no injury worries or suspended players ahead of Saturday's game. Match PreviewChiefs have not only won their last three matches, but they have avoided defeat in their last five outings, last recording a loss in August away at Cape Town City.
