- 'I think football is not always fair,' says increasingly pressured Pirates coach JonevretOrlando Pirates’ desperation to finish in the Absa Premiership top eight in their 80th anniversary season comes to a head in their second-last match against Ajax Cape Town at Orlando Stadium on Wednesday night.
The team that finishes top after the six matches‚ culminating in the game between Leopards at home to the PSL team on June 17‚ will be promoted to or remain in the Premier League.
The 15th place in the PSL is yet to be resolved‚ with two games in the top-flight still remaining.
Currently‚ Baroka FC are in 16th place (for automatic relegation) and Chippa United in 15th.
Highlands Park (14th)‚ Free State Stars (13th) and Platinum Stars (12th) all remain in relegation danger in the PSL‚ where just three points separate the bottom five teams.
