The talented young striker Emmanuel Letlotlo has been handed his first Kaizer Chiefs start by coach Steve Komphela in tonight’s Absa Premiership match against Golden Arrows.

Letlotlo comes in for Lewis Macha, who started in Sunday’s 3-2 win over Polokwane City. The Zambian striker, however, was replaced at half-time.

Meanwhile, Joseph Molangoane and Bernard Parker, who both scored against City, are in the starting line-up again.

Chiefs face Arrows at Durban’s Moses Mabhida Stadium (kick-off is at 18:00).

The encounter will be refereed by Thando Ndzandzeka.
