The duo sustained their injuries during Pirates’ 2-2 draw against Baroka FC last weekend.
Nyauza couldn’t finish the game and had to be substituted as he was struggling with a hamstring injury. The defender is expected to be out for up to five days with a Grade 1 strain.
“According to the Medical Team, Ntsiki has indeed suffered a hamstring strain but the good news is that it’s a minor injury,” read a statement on Pirates website.
Pule is also nursing a Grade 2 hamstring strain that is set to keep him off the training ground for seven to 10 days.
The Pirates medical team plans to keep an eye on the players and could potentially miss Pirates last game against Black Leopards next week Saturday.
