Buccaneers coach, Roger de Sa: Were looking forward to getting back to domestic football, actually. I suppose the challenge is we have to hit the ground running. A lot of the guys are coming off a high, and I suppose some of them off even more of a high now having been part of the Bafana team that beat Spain. Pirates have met Supersport once already in cup action this season, drawing 2-2 after extra time, thanks to a Lennox Bacela brace, and winning 4-3 on penalties in the MTN8 quarterfinals at Mbombela Stadium in August. The coach believes his team can overcome the inevitable fatigue of a gruelling Champions League campaign, punctuated by three Soweto derbies against Kaizer Chiefs, that has left Bucs trailing, having played only three games in the Premiership.
