It’s official, Orlando Pirates will face Pyramids at the FNB Stadium on Saturday, 19 April, with kick-off set for 18:00.

The two sides meet in the first leg of their semifinal encounter, before Pyramids host the second leg a week later.

Pirates had to seek other alternatives as their traditional home, Orlando Stadium, will be hosting the Grace Bible Church from 18 – 20 April.

The return leg is scheduled for the following Friday evening, 25 April, in Cairo at the Air Defence Stadium.

Meanwhile, Mamelodi Sundowns will be home to Al Ahly at Loftus Stadium on Saturday, 19 April, at 15H00, before the second leg takes place in Cairo on Friday, 25 April.

Pirates and Sundowns are aiming to make it an all-South African final, for the first time in history.

The Buccaneers previously won this tournament in 1995, before the Brazilians emulated them in 2016.
