The much-anticipated Nedbank Cup Round of 16 draw took place in Johannesburg, delivering intriguing matchups and leaving one team uncertain about their next opponent.

While several clubs eagerly await their knockout battles, Sekhukhune United finds itself in limbo as their scheduled opposition remains unresolved.

Sekhukhune has been paired against either Royal AM or Milford, the only two teams yet to play their Round of 32 fixture. However, uncertainty looms over Royal AM’s fate in the competition, as their Betway Premiership fixtures were suspended indefinitely due to ongoing tax issues with SARS.

The Premier Soccer League has yet to clarify whether Royal AM will be allowed to continue in the tournament.Meanwhile, reigning DStv Premiership champions Mamelodi Sundowns are set to face Limpopo-based amateur side Mpheni Home Defenders.

The Brazilians previously overcame another ABC Motsepe League team in the previous round, and defender Mothobi Mvala has emphasised the importance of not underestimating lower-league opponents.

Elsewhere, defending champions Orlando Pirates were handed a clash against Baroka FC, a club that famously made a Cinderella run to the Nedbank Cup semifinals in 2011. Kaizer Chiefs, seeking silverware after a long drought, will host Chippa United in another all-Premiership encounter.

TS Galaxy secured their spot in the Last 16 in emphatic fashion, demolishing Vasco Da Gama 7-0 in their Round of 32 clash. Their reward is a trip to face Durban City. Other all-Premiership ties include Stellenbosch FC taking on Polokwane City and Marumo Gallants battling AmaZulu.

SuperSport United will welcome Cape Town Spurs in another enticing fixture, while the only unresolved matchup features Sekhukhune United waiting to discover whether they will face Royal AM or Milford FC.
