Kaizer Chiefs are backed to recover from recent losses when they host Marumo Gallants. Despite a tough spell, Chiefs’ solid defensive record and home advantage make them favorites for a narrow win, possibly 1-0. The Chiefs have strong clean sheet form, while Gallants struggle away from home. Key players are missing on both sides, but new signings could impact the match. Expect the Chiefs to focus on defense and capitalize on their opportunities, while Gallants may struggle in attack due to striker shortages.

  • Kaizer Chiefs have kept clean sheets in 6 of their last 7 PSL matches.
  • Kaizer Chiefs have won 4 of their last 6 PSL matches.
  • Marumo Gallants have lost to nil in 2 of their last 3 away matches.

Head to Head


Chiefs hold a 3-2 lead over Gallants across eight meetings with three draws.

Marumo Gallants won 2-1 when the clubs last met in April 2025.

Kaizer Chiefs Form & Team News


Chiefs have lost their last two matches. Coach Nasreddine Nabi left the club after the first setback, with no reason confirmed by the club just yet.

After three straight wins, they drew 0-0 versus Mamelodi Sundowns with 13 shots. A 1-0 win over Golden Arrows saw 21 shots, before losing 3-1 at home versus Sekhukhune United.

On Saturday, Amakhosi lost 1-0 in Angola to Kabuscorp in a CAF Champions League qualifier first leg. 

Chiefs are set to be without centre back Rushwin Dortley and Given Msimango. Right back Thabiso Monyane is a major doubt.

New signing Khanyisa Mayo is pushing for a debut. This match comes too soon for Lebohang Maboe as he recovers from surgery.

Kaizer Chiefs Predicted Lineup


Petersen; Frosler, Kwinika, Miguel, Cross; Cele, Mthethwa; Lilepo, Shabalala, Mmodi; Mayo.

Marumo Gallants Form & Team News


Gallants have two wins and three draws in seven matches this season. 

In round two, a shock 2-1 home victory vs Orlando Pirates was a major boost. Two 1-0 defeats followed, 1-0 away at AmaZulu and at Stellenbosch.

Two 1-1 home draws followed, vs Polokwane City and Mamelodi Sundowns. On Saturday, they fought back from a goal down to earn a 1-1 draw at Orbit College.

Marumo Gallants could hand a debut to new signing Katlego Otladisa. The winger was signed after his release by Orlando Pirates.  

Coach Alexandre Lafitte could again use a false nine, due to a lack of quality strikers in his squad.

Marumo Gallants Predicted Lineup


Arubi; Ncube, Sikhosane, Chabatsane, Mabotja; Nhlapo, Sithole, Mphambaniso; Mabuza, Ndlondlo, Msendami.

Verdict

I see Chiefs winning this game. A 1-0 score looks like excellent value.
