The fixtures for the Nedbank Cup round of 16 was determined in Monday night’s draw with Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns kept apart.

The round of 32 wrapped on Monday evening as Glad Africa Championship side Cape Town Spurs eliminated top-flight Baroka on penalties at the Peter Mokaba Stadium.

The shock of the round undoubtedly came when Kaizer Chiefs were beaten by Richard’s Bay, while TS Galaxy fell to lower-league opposition.

Defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns, Orlando Pirates and Swallows FC now remain among the favourites although Downs have an easier last-16 fixture as they face second-tier Polokwane City.

Pretoria Callies vs JDR Stars
Mamelodi Sundowns vs Polokwane City
