Coach Steve Komphela has decided to change the offensive formation of Kaizer Chiefs for this Saturday afternoon’s game against Bidvest Wits at FNB Stadium.

Ryan Moon has been handed his first official start wearing the Gold and Black jersey, playing up-front.

The 20-year-old striker has come on in five league matches so far, scoring his maiden goal in the one-all draw against Golden Arrows on 6 May 2017.

Moon is partnered up-front by Gustavo Páez.

Emmanuel Letlotlo gets his second league start of the season, while Daniel Cardoso comes in at the centre-back position, replacing Erick Mathoho, who still suffers a bit from his concussion sustained in the Platinum Stars.
