According to KickOfff.com, Orlando Pirates Vermezovic has hit back the claims of fit-again Kaizer Chiefs striker Bernard Parker, who claims that he always scores at Moses Mabhida Stadium.

“Message to Bernard Parker on scoring at Moses Mabhida - I also always win at Moses Mabhida,” said the Buccaneers coach at a press conference earlier on Wednesday.

Vermezovic was in high spirits as he revealed that he has a full team at his disposal after Thandani Ntshumayelo was passed fit following a scan on his thigh.

Patrick Phungwayo is also back in the mix with Thabo Matlaba free to play after serving a two-match ban.

The Moses Mabhida Stadium will play host for the much anticipated MTN8 final between Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday, September 20.

Kick-off for this encounter is set for 20:15.
