NATURENA, 14 February 2013 – Fireworks are expected when the Glamour Boys welcome Free State Stars on Saturday, 16 February 2013.



Tickets for the eagerly anticipated fixture are already on sale at Shoprite/Checkers and Computicket nationwide selling for R40 for adults.



When the two sides locked horns at the beginning of the season the pulsating fixture produced a goalless draw - a game that ended Kaizer Chiefs winning streak early in the season.



The game will also see two of the highly rated goalkeepers in the continent, Itumeleng Khune and Kennedy Mweene coming face to face with each other. Players like Siphiwe Tshabalala, Kingston Nkhatha and Sthembiso Ngcobo have played for Free State Stars before while Steve Komphela worked with Stuart Baxter in the national team and had a brief spell with the Club back in 1993 will have a point to prove.



According to Vina Maphosa, Corporate Communications Manager; “Free State Stars will no doubt come with guns blazing following their midweek win against Chippa United but they better be warned that the game at the FNB Stadium on Saturday evening will be a totally different ball game. The FNB Stadium is our fortress and allows us to play our kind of game.



“The game against Mamelodi Sundowns is history and everyone is channeling their energies on welcoming Free State Stars. We would like to urge our supporters to once again come in numbers in support of the team. They have played a massive role in the success of the team this season. We need to stand together and Reclaim the Glory.



In line with the spirit of Valentine’s Day there will be entertainment before and at halftime and fans are expected to walk away with prizes courtesy of the Club’s main sponsors, Vodacom.



As part of promoting the game on Saturday the Club in conjunction with main sponsors, Vodacom have lined up Roadshow activation in Alexandra. Details are as follows:



Venue: Pan Africa Mall, Alexandra



Date: Friday, 15 February 2013



Time: 12h00 – 16h30
