The Nedbank Cup quarterfinals are taking place this weekend, with all eight teams looking to advance to the semi-finals.
Dstv Premiership champions, Mamelodi Sundowns are chasing a possible treble, while Orlando Pirates are looking to lift their second trophy of the season.
Kaizer Chiefs are presented with their last chance to earn some silverware, while Dondol Stars are hoping for a fairy tale run to the final.
Chippa United are facing possible relegation, and they would love nothing than to bow out with a bang if push comes to shove.
The coaches have spoken, the battle lines have been drawn and the troops are fully armed and ready!
But the big question is, who will make it through to the semi-finals?
This publication consulted their trusted football sangoma, whom for safety reasons, has to remain anonymous!
Dondol Stars vs Orlando Pirates:
This one is a definite Pirates victory. A motivated Dondol will put up a brave fight, but that is all there will be to it.
Bucs will show their experience and put the third tiers to the sword.
Stellenbosch FC vs Mamelodi Sundowns:
Our sangoma's bones point to a Sundowns win at Athlone Stadium.
As is the norm, Sundowns will dominate the ball, play with more intensity than they have been doing in their last three league matches, and create high quality chances which they will convert into goals.
According to our sangoma's bones, Downs will win this one with more than one goal, despite some determined efforts from Stellenbosch.

Chippa United vs Sekhukhune United:
Our sangoma foresees a not so exciting encounter between these two sides.
According to the bones, Sekhukhune will have a slight advantage when it comes to controlling possession, create the better chances and score a goal or two to win the match.
But if you are looking for cutting edge cup football in this match, sorry to disappoint you.
Just know that Sekhukhune will win, end of story.
Royal AM vs Kaizer Chiefs:
According to our sangoma, this is going to be the most exciting match of the lot.
Just to paint a vivid picture, when it comes to ball possession, it will be almost 50/50.
In terms of goal mouth action, Chiefs will create the better chances, and put Royal AM's defence under all sorts of pressure.
As for Thwihli Thwahla, they will play well, up until the final third where they will run out of ideas to break down the Chiefs defence.
According to the bones, history will be made as Chiefs win their first match against Royal AM at Chartsworth.
Jubilation for Arthur Zwane, disappointment for John Maduka.
Just a recap of teams that will be in the semi-finals:
1) Orlando Pirates
2) Mamelodi Sundowns
3) Sekhukhune United
4) Kaizer Chiefs
