Chippa United Form & Team News

Chippa ended last season on a poor run with no wins in their final seven matches. This term has seen three losses and one draw in four PSL matches as they sit bottom of the table.

This season got underway with a 1-1 draw vs Mamelodi Sundowns in a strong performance. A 1-0 loss at newly promoted Durban City was followed by a 4-1 home humbling by TS Galaxy.

In midweek, they lost 1-0 away at Richards Bay. Chippa had 59% possession but lacked cutting edge.

Caretaker coach Musa Nyatama could hand a debut to right back Harold Majadibodu.

Chippa have had a busy off-season. Both Justice Figuareido and Somila Ntsundwana arrived last week and are set to start again.

Chippa United Predicted Lineup

Nwabali; Majadibodu, Ndlovu, Fasika, Modise; Mosele, Kammies; Figuareido, Mfecane, Matrose; Ntsundwana.

Bucs look much more like themselves of late after losing the opening two league matches. They’ve won their last two PSL fixtures and reached the MTN8 final.

After losing 1-0 at home to Sekhukhune United and 2-1 at Marumo Gallants, they’ve bounced ball well. They drew 1-1 with Mamelodi Sundowns in the MTN8 semi-final first leg.

A 1-0 win over Stellenbosch came with a 15-6 shot count. After beating Sundowns on penalties following a 1-1 second leg draw, they beat Orbit College 1-0 in the league last time out.

Pirates have defender Olisa Ndah back from injury. Nkosinathi Sibisi and Deano Van Rooyen are doubts at the back.

Makhehlene Makhaula is still absent in central midfield due to injury.
