Kaizer Chiefs have an opportunity to go to the top of the PSL table when they clash with Chippa United at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday.
The last time Chiefs and Chippa faced each other was in April and Amakhosi won 3-1 away in Gqeberha. That has placed them in a good position to go on top of the standings for the first time since the end of the 2019/20 season when they were pipped to the league title by Sundowns on the last day of the campaign. After starting the season on a slow note, with much doubt on coach Arthur Zwane, Chiefs have improved in recent games and have won their last three league encounters.
On the state of the Chiefs squad after a good run of recent results: We are coming into this game with a positive headache in terms of welcoming players ...
We are trying our level best, it looks like everyone is ready, it’s a matter of getting the right balance as we also have a game again on Wednesday against TS Galaxy. It’s a matter of getting the combinations right and to see who is going to be ready for the game and not changing too much, as we are trying to get the chemistry right in the squad. It’s a case of managing the players, because the games are coming thick and fast, but we are looking forward to the game to make sure we get the desired results.
Kaizer Chiefs return to DStv Premiership action this afternoon when they host Chippa United at the Moses Mabhida stadium.

It’s well on the way and the new structure is coming and looking forward to what it can achieve for us.” He still visits his former training base and that comes as Motaung Jnr says the club is still working on their scouting department.

Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane has laid into his players following their lacklustre performance in their shock defeat to Chippa United on Saturday ...
Had we put them under pressure and forced them to make mistakes like we did in the dying minutes, look at how many chances we created," he explained. Chiefs striker Caleb Bimenyimana and Keagan Dolly were guilty of missing great chances to score. You could see at the beginning of the game we were a bit sluggish and we thought it was going to be an easy game," Zwane told SuperSport TV.
GOAL runs the rule over the individual performances of the Kaizer Chiefs players following the team's match against Chippa United on Saturday.
He was surprisingly substituted just before the hour-mark. Dolly's delivery from set-pieces was brilliant and he grabbed an assist when Ngezana headed home his well-taken corner-kick. Maart was outclassed by Man of the Match Siphesihle Mkhize who neutralized the Chiefs midfielder. He had to be substituted with 15 minutes left having picked up an injury. Unfortunately, he was adjudged to have scored an own goal as Ronald Pfumbidzai's header came off him. - Backpagepix
Chippa United scored at the death to hand Kaizer Chiefs a 2-1 defeat in their DStv Premiership clash at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday.
The replay showed he was in fact on. A perfectly-timed cross found Godspower Ighodaro in the Chiefs box and he slotted the finish with ease, but the linesman flagged for offside. He received it near the penalty spot but he mishit his shot and it was easily saved.
Coach Arthur Zwane said pre-match that his side would adopt a cautious approach against an “unpredictable” Chippa United, and indeed it was a cagey opening to ...
The Namibian lined up his shot on goal, but was forced to fire wide under excellent critical defensive pressure from the backtracking Njabulo Blom. As time ran out Chippa somehow leave Durban with full points in a game they will be first to concede they were largely second best in on the pitch throughout. Dolly and Billiat again engineered a bit of their renowned magic in the 83rd minute, a pacy piece of interplay seeing Billiat playing provider to Dolly, who zipped through the Chippa defence but put his side foot snap shot agonisingly just wide of Kazapua’s goal. Khama Billiat returned to the pitch for a sprightly late cameo, linking well with Dolly in setting up a good chance for Siyethemba Sithebe in the 78th minute, but the substitute could not keep his shot down when teed up nicely by the Zimbabwean on the edge of the six-yard area. Chiefs tried desperately to give Chairman, Dr. A confident Chiefs, though, were comfortably the better side in the first half, constantly probing and exerting pressure on the visitors, with Kgaogelo Sekgota - operating on the right - continuing his good recent form and Ashley du Preez anxious to get back on the scoresheet.
Kaizer Chiefs' seven-match unbeaten streak was ended by Chippa United. The same result also exposed the team's weakness.

Kaizer Chiefs missed a golden opportunity to obtain position number one in the DStv Premiership when they were thrashed 2-1 by Chippa.
Chiefs started the match with intentions of winning the match in the first half. This resulted in a gluttony of mistakes from Amakhosi as Chippa kept on knocking on their door. The second half was full of activity and Amakhosi tried to go for the kill but they wasted numerous scoring opportunities. A win for Amakhosi would have seen them climb to the top of the league table for the first time this season. To Subscribe to Sunday World, [click here](https://subs.arena.africa/#!/offer/411?utm_source=promo411&utm_medium=Circ) Chippa’s next game is against Sekhukhune United on Tuesday while Amakhosi will get an opportunity to redeem themselves against TS Galaxy on Wednesday at FNB Stadium.
