Kaizer Chiefs vs Moroka Swallows Predictions

Chiefs are grinding out narrow league wins of late. Swallows are in dire form and lack goal threat. I’m backing a narrow 1-0 home win.

Kaizer Chiefs have won 3 of their last 5 PSL matches.
Kaizer Chiefs have kept 4 clean sheets in their last 5 PSL matches.
Moroka Swallows have lost 4 of their last 5 PSL matches.
Moroka Swallows have failed to score in 6 of their last 7 matches.

Head to Head

Chiefs hold a 14-7 lead over Swallows with eight draws in 29 meetings.

Kaizer Chiefs won 1-0 at Moroka Swallows when the teams met in November.

Kaizer Chiefs Form & Team News

Chiefs are unbeaten in six matches in all competitions. However, they’re not playing well and were dumped out of the Cup last weekend.

Amakhosi won three consecutive matches by 1-0 margins: at Moroka Swallows, at Polokwane City and at home to Richards Bay. Chiefs drew 1-1 at Sekhukhune United to end 2023.

They began 2024 with a 0-0 draw at Royal AM as they opponents had 19 penalty box touches to seven. Last weekend, Chiefs missed a penalty in 0-0 draw vs Milford FC before losing on spot-kicks.

Left back Sifiso Hlanti returns from suspension. Defender Thatayaone Ditlhokwe is out injured.

Keagan Dolly may again be left on the bench. Yusuf Maart will be recalled in the engine room.

Kaizer Chiefs Predicted Lineup

Bvuma; Frosler, Msimango, Dove, Hlanti; Castillo, Maart; Saile, Ngcobo, Mmodi; Du Preez.

Moroka Swallows Form & Team News

Swallows haven’t won a match since early November. A run of three losses saw them drop down the table.

After drawing 0-0 at Royal, the Birds forfeited two matches by 3-0 scorelines after failing to show up. The new year began with a 1-0 home loss to Polokwane City in the league.

Last Saturday, they drew 0-0 away to lower league Platinum City Rovers before progressing on penalties in the Nedbank Cup.

Veteran goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi will return to the XI.

Tlakusani Mthethwa is due for a recall in midfield. Veteran defender Ntsikelelo Nyauza is set to start.

Moroka Swallows Predicted Lineup

Akpeyi; Mphahlele, Nyauza, V. Sibiya, Tshanini; Damons, Phalane, Mthethwa, Mtshali; Mhango, Koapeng.
