Both teams go into the clash in desperate need of a change in fortunes. Pirates have collected just win of their last five league outings while Spurs have lost all eight of their league matches since the start of the season.

Speaking to KickOff, Bucs legend Shakes Gwabeni believes it's high time for a change in mentality at Pirates.

"The coach is taking most for the critics, but I think the players have to change. They have to step up," the retired midfielder said.

"I think the coach has been doing well in putting out a team that is capable of winning an scoring. This team scoring goal for the whole second half of last season.

"So now it's up to the players to take on the responsibility of winning matches. I think the mentality has to change. They have to be more confident. They haven't looked like a confident team in a while."
