Kaizer Chiefs are back at home this weekend for their eighth DStv Premiership match of the season against SuperSport United on Saturday night.

ICYMI: MAN UNITED RETURN APPROACHING FOR MASON GREENWOOD?

Coach Arthur Zwane’s side is looking for three points in this game following their disappointing 1-1 draw in their latest outing against Marumo Gallants out in Phokeng last Sunday. Before that match, Amakhosi also shared the spoils against AmaZulu at FNB Stadium, and they are now dwelling down in 14th place on the DStv Premiership log.

Coach Arthur Zwane says that the technical team is preparing the team well and will assess which of the players who weren’t available last week will make a return this week, with Amakhosi desperately hoping for some squad reinforcements.

“We did not have several guys, including Siyabonga Ngezana, Cole Alexander, Khama Billiat, Reeve Frosler and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo available for selection due to an assortment of reasons. We will use the next few days to see which of the guys are able to return as we need everyone so we can plan accordingly for all the matches,” Zwane commented.
