Kaizer Chiefs return to Betway Premiership action this evening when they travel to the Princess Magogo Stadium in KwaMashu to face Richards Bay.
The Glamour Boys will be looking to continue their impressive start to the league campaign but standing in their way tonight is a desperate Richards Bay side.
The Natal Rich Boys are yet to win this season, and currently sit in 14th position on the log standings with just two points out of a possible nine so far this season.
Starting lineups
Richards Bay XI: Otieno, Mcineka, Ndelu, Sikhakhane, Mabuya, Mntungwa, Nashixwa, Mthembu, Khumalo, Gumede, Xulu.
Subs: Mtshali, Simelane, Shezi, Zikhali, Mbambo, Nzama, Ndelu, Barns, Mahala.
Kaizer Chiefs XI: Petersen, Monyane, Kwinika, Miguel, Moloisane, Maboe, Ndlovu, Shabalala, Mmodi, Vilakazi, Baartman.
Subs: Leaner, Solomons, Frosler, Mthethwa, Mtasingwa, Duba, Ighodaro, Velebayi, Abrahams.
A result is almost guaranteed
Tonight’s meeting will be the 10th encounter between the two sides. Interestingly, none of their previous matches have ended in a draw.
In fact, Richards Bay have enjoyed great success against Kaizer Chiefs over the years. They’ve won three out of the last five meetings between the two sides!
In total, Kaizer Chiefs have registered four wins over Bay, while the Natal side have triumphed on five previous occasions.
