“By 17:30, Chiefs will be eliminated and the score will be quite clear. Chiefs need to score, they need to come out.

“Molefi Ntseki approached the first leg very defensively but tomorrow he doesn’t have a choice,” Khanye added.

Chiefs need to win or at least play to a scoring draw which could see them through should they score two or more goal and play to a draw.
