Former Orlando Pirates captain Siyabonga Sangweni is giving Richards Bay FC little chance against the favoured Buccaneers in Saturday’s upcoming Carling Knockout Cup clash at Moses Mabhida Stadium.

Pirates have lifted the past three major cup competitions in South Africa and will be aiming to add their fourth consecutive trophy under Jose Riveiro.

"As you know, in cup competitions Pirates are unstoppable, they speak through actions," Sangweni tells KickOff.

"Once you allow Pirates to get this far in a cup competition then you should forget about winning that particular cup.

"Some players can already smell the bonuses, they should be consistent though, they should be doing the same in league games.

"By winning cups, you are making your own history, remember we are not playing for fun at Pirates.

"There must be some sort of legacy that you leave behind, so we always looking to add more trophies.

"When you sign for Pirates, you must do that knowing that badge is no child's play.


"Pirates are known all over the world. Big clubs like the Pirates play to make history.

"I see Pirates winning this one, they have more chances of winning the game compared to Richards Bay. 

"According to my opinion, this cup is already inside the Pirates cabinet. They are winning here."
