Kaizer Chiefs Form & Team News

Chiefs are looking to end a 10-year trophy drought in this cup final. They’re winless in seven league matches and sit ninth in the PSL table.

A 1-1 home draw with TS Galaxy was followed by a late 2-1 win over Mamelodi Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup semi-final. A 0-0 draw at Chippa United and a 2-1 home loss to Marumo Gallants followed.

Their last match saw a 2-1 loss against Orlando Pirates. Chiefs mustered just three shots in the match.

Coach Nasreddine Nabi is without four defenders for this match. Reeve Frosler, Bradley Cross, Given Msimango and Rushin Dortley will play no part.

Speedy forward Wandile Duba returns from suspension in attack. Thabo Cele is set for a recall in midfield.

Kaizer Chiefs Predicted Lineup

Bvuma; Solomons, Kwinika, Miguel, Dove; Maart, Cele; Lilepo, Sirino, Mmodi; Duba.

A 0-0 home draw vs Pyramids was followed by a 3-2 second leg loss in Cairo having led 2-1. A 1-0 home loss to Sekhukhune United in the league saw their title hopes come to an end.

Bucs have restored confidence with two wins in the last week. They beat Kaizer Chiefs 2-1 and won 2-1 at Golden Arrows in two league fixtures.

Coach Jose Riveiro welcomes back key defender Nkosinathi Sibisi from suspension. Central midfielder Thalente Mbatha is also available after a ban.

Olisa Ndah and Thabiso Sesane remain injured in defence. Key playmaker Relebohile Mofokeng is back after being rested for the victory at Golden Arrows.
