Kaizer Chiefs vs Sekhukhune United Preview: Kick-off time, TV ... (Goal.com)

Kaizer Chiefs would want a befitting 53rd anniversary when they host Sekhukhune United in a PSL match at FNB Stadium.

Chiefs have a better record than Sekhukhune in the PSL after edging the Limpopo side 1-0 in May 2022 after they had also won 2-0 in the reverse fixture last season. Chiefs have lost once in their last five league outings, including victories in the last two games and they would be keen to continue on that path. If he defies the fitness issues and plays on Saturday, Bimenyimana will be high in confidence and keen to extend his lead as the current PSL top-scorer.
