Chiefs have already secured third place and CAF Confederation Cup football – their best finish in six seasons. A win takes them to 57 points, matching their highest total since 2019-20 under Ernst Middendorp.

Co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef have overseen a significant turnaround after back-to-back finishes of ninth and tenth.
