Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns have been doing well this season domestically and abroad.
They have managed to get into the Caf Champions League quarter-final; Masandawana will have to get past Esperance in the last eight while the Sea Robbers will face MC Alger in the next hurdle.
Have a look at what the fans said after the draw that was conducted on Thursday, February 2.
Thank God Pirates were not drawn against Dunusa
Pirates play mob justice football, 35 passes in 35 seconds! MC Alger, the best defensive side versus Orlando Pirates the best-attacking side, football lovers will watch this one with hearts in their mouths! – Thando Nothani
It's about time we need the depth of the squad more than before! Bring back Miguel Timm, bring back Goodman Mosele, bring back Zakhele Lepasa, bring back Olisa Ndah, and bring back Monnapule Saleng – Aphiwe Da Silva
MC Alger team isn’t just a walkover; Orlando Pirates have to fight their way through them – Taylor
Thank god we didn’t get drawn with Dunusa and now they’ll be knocked out by Esperance. We are through to the final, up the Buccaneers – Siyamthanda Xokiso
They shouldn't underestimate MC Alger they are very good, and defensively they can frustrate Pirates. They must be on the lookout for set pieces – Ben Sam
Sundowns have unfinished business with Esperance
Good for us downs because Miguel Cardoso knows Esperance very well since he is the coach that took us out last season. Let us hope he leads us to glory this season – Polite Mpho Malahle
We are aware that our opponent poses a significant challenge, but we are fully committed to the fight ahead. Even when we approach the semifinals, we recognize that competing against Al Ahly will not be simple. The dynamics of the group stages differ greatly from those of the knockout rounds, and we understand that this match will demand our utmost effort and focus. Every moment will count, and we're prepared to give our best to secure a place in the final. We are Mamelodi Sundowns – Van Der Nom Lwethu
If we beat these ones, we've won the Champions League trophy. We will make them regret why they fired coach Cardoso – Morobe
I wanted this draw we have unfinished business with Esperance, I'm sure our coach will want to show those who fired him that they made a mistake – Sive Hlumelo
Sundowns have always dominated this competition home and away through their possession philosophy but due to mental and emotional shortcomings, they get knocked out. Those two goals they conceded against Esperance last season were schoolboy defensive errors – Goethe Gaulle
