Former coach Sergio Dos Santos trusts that Orlando Pirates will defeat the struggling Magesi FC this weekend.
Magesi currently sits at the bottom of the Premiership table and appears to be serious contenders for automatic relegation this season.
"Well, it's still a long way to go, but Magesi seems to be the weakest of the lot, there is no question about that," Santos tells KickOff.

"With Clinton Larsen's departure, it is sure to affect the players. He has been working with them for a long time and brought them up to the PSL."
Santos believes that Larsen needed a few players to strengthen the team, but perhaps the club's owners were unwilling to invest the necessary funds.
"It's going to be difficult for them now," he added.
Santos also explained why clubs that struggle financially often find themselves fighting against relegation.
"Money is obviously very important, especially for smaller teams. With a tight budget, they can't afford to spend a lot. The personnel at Magesi is okay, but the squad is not strong enough to survive.
"You can't blame Clinton Larsen for the situation Magesi is in right now, their squad mostly consists of young players. That might work in cup competitions, but it's a different story in the PSL."
Santos believes that Larsen needed more players to enhance the team, but it appears that management faced challenges in making that happen.
"One thing led to another," he said.

On Sunday, Magesi is set to host Orlando Pirates at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium.
"Every game they play now will be difficult. I don't see any reason why Clinton Larsen would be sacked. The squad they have is not one that would find it easy to survive.
"From now on, every match will feel like a cup final for them, and they will definitely need to bring in a few more players."
