Sekhukhune United will look to go one better in this season’s Nedbank Cup as the take on Highlands Park in the last 32 out at the Dobsonville Stadium on Wednesday.
Babina Noko came within inches of the cup last season only to succumb to Terrence Dzvukamaja’s last minute strike as Orlando Pirates claimed the cup.
The reformed Highlands, who ply their trade in the ABC Motsepe League, weren’t involved in the tournament proper last season and will seek to make their return count.
Under the experienced Allan Freese, the host will surely have their work cut out against top flight opposition least of all last season’s beaten finalist.
Babina Noko are high in confidence at the moment after defeating Richards Bay FC 3-1 in the DStv Premiership on Saturday and before then held the mighty Kaizer Chiefs to a 1-1 draw.
There have been no recent competitive encounters between the boys of Freese and Lehlohonolo Seema’s men with this the first of note.
Kick-off is at 19h00.
Confirmed line-ups:
Sekhukhune United: Makgolane, Mkhabela, Tiwani, Cardiso, Tshibwabwa, Mkhize, Masiya, Webber, Sarpong, Mntambo, Mncube.
Subs: Mtsweni, Rikhotso, Mobbie, Ntiya-Ntiya, Dias, Mokotjo, Ohizu, Mokhele.
