The 2025 Nedbank Cup Last 16 draw has officially been conducted, and there are some exciting matches on the menu.

Royal AM have NOT been knocked out of the competition as the league is still deliberating on their fate.

Shauwn Mkhize’s club was supposed to take on Mildford FC on Monday but that encounter never took place.

Now, for the Last 16 draw…

Kaizer Chiefs, Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates have all avoided each other.

Amakhosi have been handed a tough task against a stubborn Chippa United while Sundowns face minnows Mpheni Home Defenders.

Defending champions Pirates will fancy their chances against Baroka in the next round of the Nedbank Cup.

However, Bucs should not underestimate Baroka given what happened on 8 December 2018.

On the day, Baroka stunned Pirates to win the Telkom Knockout Cup which is now known as the Carling Knockout Cup.
