Dark clouds gather over Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates as they approach crucial midweek battles in the Betway Premiership.
Amakhosi, still smarting from their narrow 1-0 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns must quickly regroup to face Magesi FC at FNB Stadium on Tuesday evening.
In parallel with Chiefs' woes, Pirates also experienced a disappointing Saturday, falling 2-0 to Marumo Gallants at the Free State Stadium.
The consequence of this defeat is a significant blow to Pirates' title ambitions, as it widens the gap to league leaders Sundowns to a substantial 18 points.
Chiefs will be without key midfielders Gaston Sirino and Thabo Cele for their crucial midweek Betway Premiership match. Both players are suspended for one game after receiving their fourth yellow cards of the season.
Pirates are weakened by the suspension of goalkeeper Sipho Chaine. He is also ruled out after reaching four yellow cards this campaign.
