Saturday, March 8 is not going to be an exception as supporters are expected to pack the venue to capacity.

SEDIBENG.- Expect a full house when Orlando Pirates Reserve team hosts Kaizer Chiefs in the Soweto derby in the DSTV Diski Challenge (DDC).
This much-anticipated Soweto derby between Pirates and Chiefs babies will take place at Isak Steyl Stadium in Vanderbijlpark next Saturday, March 8. This encounter is round two of the DDC fixture after Chiefs beat Pirates 2-0 in the first round.

As things stand Stellenbosch is sitting at the summit of the log. This game promises to produce fireworks giving the two teams’ history.
