A feat that could cement these players in Amakhosi history forever. This is a massive chance for the players and club to achieve greatness. Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard have a massive opportunity too.

They can make their mark by maintaining their unbeaten start to their young coaching careers at the club while carrying Chiefs all the way to the CAF Champions League final.

Stuart Baxter has just been re-appointed and is set to take over but a win here could open up an intense debate around this.

For several club legends, it is a chance to cap off their stellar Chiefs career with a maiden final in Africa.

The Amakhosi players are well aware of the task at hand. Bernard Parker, Willard Katsande and Itumeleng Khune have served the club with passion, pride and dignity for many years.

They deserve to finish their careers at the Soweto giants on a high. This side is filled with future legends too.
