Kaizer Chiefs will resume their Betway Premiership campaign on Saturday against Royal AM at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.
This encounter comes on the heels of a hard-fought 2-1 victory against another Kwa-Zulu Natal side, Richards Bay, on Wednesday. The midweek win was a significant morale-booster for Chiefs, with the players and technical team working tirelessly to reach 10 points from six matches thus far.
The Glamour Boys have enjoyed a successful run at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in recent games, and they will be seeking to capitalise on this momentum. Currently sitting sixth on the log, Chiefs will be gunning for another three points against Royal AM to maintain their position among the leading pack.
The previous two matches between these sides ended in stalemates, and Chiefs will be determined to secure a win this time around. Royal AM, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back from their recent loss against Golden Arrows in their own backyard.
Amakhosi will be without defender Inacio Miguel, who is serving a suspension following his red card against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Knockout quarterfinal match. Reeve Frosler will also be absent, having been sent off in Wednesday’s match against Richards Bay.
