Nedbank Cup dates confirmed

Dates and venues for the Nedbank Cup tournament fixtures have been confirmed, with the Limpopo ABC Motsepe League side Boyne Tigers FC travelling to Johannesburg for its last 32 fixture, on Wednesday 23 January.

The team will have a mountain to climb, when it takes on ABSA Premiership log leaders, Bidvest Wits FC, in the knockout stages of the Nedbank Cup.

Back home on the same day, Polokwane City will be hosting National First Division side Tshakhuma Tsha Madzhivhandila FC, in what should be a mouthwatering Limpopo derby.

Limpopo soccer lovers will be divided in terms of who to support in this last 32 encounter, as both teams have a fair share of followers in the province.

On Saturday 26 January, Thohoyandou Stadium will be a hive of activity when Premier Soccer League (PSL) giants Orlando Pirates FC visits Black Leopards FC for a Nedbank Cup encounter.

Orlando Pirates FC is currently sitting on the second position in the ABSA Premiership, two points behind the log leaders Bidvest Wits FC, while Black Leopards FC (11) is currently battling
its way into the top eight.

Telkom Knockout champions Baroka FC will host Jomo Cosmos FC at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on Tuesday 29 January.
