Thabo Rakhale and Siphiwe Tshabalala are likely to provide a lot of the creativity for Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs at FNB Stadium.
The standout statistic is that Tshabalala has 10 assists to Rakhale's zero this season but the Pirates man was arguably more influential in his side's 3-1 victory in the first round of the season, even though it was 'Shabba' who got an assist for Chiefs' consolation goal in that match.
Below are their statistics for the season so far in head-to-head format. Who do you think will perform better in the upcoming Derby?
