The 16 matches will be played over seven days of electric action around the country, with colossal ties and potential giant-killing acts all in the mix. Fans who want to take in the action can get their tickets from TicketPro outlets and selected SASOL garages countrywide. Prices will start at R40 for adults, and R15 for children under the age of 12. Galaxy became the first side from outside if the Premier League to lift the Nedbank Cup when they beat Kaizer Chiefs in last year’s decider, giving hope to many other sides from around the country that they can do likewise. All ties will be decided on the day, with extra-time used if the teams are level after 90 minutes. Should that still not decide the winner, the match will go to a penalty shoot-out.
