Willard Katsande returns to Kaizer Chiefs’ starting line-up to face Platinum Stars tonight. The Zimbabwean international missed out on Saturday’s 1-0 loss against Polokwane City due to suspension.
Gustavo Páez has been given the nod ahead of Bernard Parker and will start up-front.
Siphiwe Tshabalala, meanwhile, has recovered from his muscle issues and will be playing in his usual role behind the striker. It will be a welcome comeback for ‘Shabba’, who is Amakhosi’s leading scorer in the league with seven goals.
