Arrows, who snatched a late point against Stellenbosch FC last Friday, are set to play host to Pirates at the Princess Magogo Stadium on Tuesday for an encounter in which the away team will be looking to snap a three match winless run in the league. The Buccaneers were held to a 1-1 draw by AmaZulu in their most recent match over the weekend and were dealt a double blow after goalkeeper Richard Ofori and utility player Bandile Shandu were both forced off through injury.
