The Kaizer Chiefs talisman is currently sitting on 97 goals, meaning he needs three more to join the ‘Club 100‘ while the SuperSport United man is on 98 goals.

Grobler netted his 98th topflight goal when Matsatsantsa beat Cape Town City 1-0 last week, and he appears to be very close to scoring his 100th goal first.

And with Billiat still unfit to feature for Chiefs, Grobler is likely to use this period and capitalise on it – and he’s also helped by the fact that he’s a regular under Gavin Hunt.

Of course, both Billiat and Grobler could have long reached 100 PSL goals had it not been for injuries that kept them out of the game in the past.

For instance, Grobler spent the whole of last season on the sidelines due to injury while Billiat has been in and out of this Chiefs team over the last two seasons.

Very close on their heels is Lehlohonolo Majoro, who has scored 91 topflight goals across all the teams he played for in his professional career.
