Coach Ernest Middendorp has decided to kick off the 2019/20 with a different line up from what we witnessed last season when his team takes on Highlands Park this afternoon.
Interesting for the supporters will be new comers Kearyn Baccus, Samir Nurković and Lazalous Kambole who will be getting a chance to impress as represent Amakhosi for the first time in an official match.
Bruce Bvuma is entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring that no ball touches the inside of the net on our side.
With two of the left-backs (Siphosakhe Ntiya-Ntiya and Yagan Sasman) suspended, Bvuma will be assisted by Lorenzo Gordinho, Mulomowandau Mathoho, Daniel Cardoso and Reeve Frosler in defence.
The midfield will be packed as Willard Katsande, Kearyn Baccus and Bernard Parker.
Our attack will see Nurković joined on the wings by Lebogang Manyama and Kambole.
Khama Billiat will not take part in this afternoon’s match as he is on a precautionary injury break after last week’s Carling Black Label Cup. He is expected to return soon.
Assistant coach Shaun Bartlett will watch from the stands as he is still serving his suspension but is expected back on the bench for the next game.
This afternoon’s clash between Highlands Park and Kaizer Chiefs is the first official match of 2019/2020 football season for both teams. The match was sold-out at least five days ago and kick-off at Makhulong Stadum is scheduled for 15:00.
The referee is Eugene Mdluli. His assistants will be Kenny Mamegwa and Mervyn van Wyk. Moses Kheswa is the fourth official.
