The Sea Robbers have to build on their dreams start in Algeria over a week ago with that 2-1 win over CR Belouizdad. Matchday two’s Al Ahly are also keen on two wins out of two after beating Stade d’Abidjan 4-2 in Cairo.
Speaking to the media before the game, coach Riveiro said Orlando Pirates will leave it all on the green grass to get a result.
SIPHELELE LUTHULI
