How Kaizer Chiefs arrive

Chiefs have lost two and drawn three of their last five matches. They have already been knocked out of two cup competitions, including the CAF Confederation Cup, and finished last season without silverware.

Renaldo Leaner is ruled out. Goalkeeper Bruce Bvuma kept a clean sheet in the recent Confederation Cup match but has struggled in penalty shootouts, which leaves a question over who starts in goal. Captain Brandon Petersen was on the bench in that match.

How TS Galaxy arrive

Galaxy have lost three, drawn one and won one of their last five matches. They are under temporary caretaker Esau Mtsweni. Lentswe Motaung is out injured.
