The Amakhosi will be looking to make amends for their humiliating 4-1 loss at the hands of the same opponents in their opening round league fixture.

Royal AM head into this afternoon’s clash just two points behind third placed Kaizer Chiefs, however the Glamour Boys do have a game in hand, or do they?

Amakhosi almost at full strength – Zwane

“Since the outbreak, as everybody knows, we had challenges. A lot of players were not available.” Kaizer Chiefs assistant coach Arthur Zwane said.

“This week we had at least 90% of the guys, if not 95%, available. Others we are still trying to manage. They still need seven days or so to be ready to compete. So far so good.

“Those who are available to represent the team are looking forward to the game (against Royal AM) and they look much better than they have over the last two weeks. We’re hoping that Kaizer Chiefs will be able to come up with the desired result, regardless of the situation.

“Many players are still not 100 percent for various reasons, but it’s good to see the boys back and eager to showcase their God-given talents, with the hope that we will get everything right.

“Those that are not available this week, should be available against Maritzburg. Going forward, at least Kaizer Chiefs have a very long break that will allow us to have everyone back when we start the second round of the league.”
