Kaizer Chiefs play Chippa United on Sunday in the Premier Soccer League fixture to be staged at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
While the Glamour Boys wish to get a confidence-boosting win, the Chilli Boys are aware a win will bring them close to the top three positions.
Form Guide and Head-to-Head Record
Amakhosi have been inconsistent, something that is crashing their fans. In the last seven games, the Glamour Boys have managed a single win which is not enough. They have registered 12 points.
The Chilli Boys have two wins, as many losses, and a draw from their last five league assignments. They are on 14 points after four wins, as many losses and two draws.
In the head-to-head record, both teams have won twice in the last five meetings, with one game ending in a draw.
What they said
Despite the inconsistencies, coach Nasreddine Nabi is convinced his team will eventually deliver.
”Honestly… I think we are in the right direction, after five months with this team, even though we have lost so many points recklessly. But I still think we're headed in a good direction,” he said in a recent interview.
Team News and starting XI
Chiefs are expected to have the likes of Gaston Sirino and Brandon Petersen back after sustaining injuries. However, Bradley Cross might be subjected to a late fitness test.
Chippa will be going for nothing less than an upset against a side that is lacking confidence.
Chiefs Probable XI: Ntwari, Frosler, Dortley, Miguel, Ditlhokwe, Mthethwa, Shabalala, Maart, Sirino, Duba, Du Preez
Chippa Probable XI: Nwabali, Modise, Ndlovu, Majogoro, Kwayiba, Jali, Makhele, Martin, Eva Nga, Baloni, Mqokozo

The match will kick off at 17.45 and will be live on SuperSport TV PSL channel 202.
