Cape Town City v Kaizer Chiefs

Goalkeeper Bruce Bvuma will make his debut for the Kaizer Chiefs first team tonight. Bvuma comes in at the back of regular goalkeepers, Itumeleng Khune and Brilliant Khuzwayo suffering an assortment of injuries.

Bvuma who was a regular in the Multichoice Diski Challenge league gets the nod ahead of Luthando Sixhaso who also at some point this season was side-lined due to injury.

Coach Steve Komphela made more changes for tonight's encounter with Lorenzo Gordinho suspended and Sibusiso Khumalo side-lined by a thigh injury. Replacing them will be Daniel Cardoso and Tsepo Masilela.

Kickoff at Cape Town Stadium is at 19:30.
