Preview: Black Leopards v Kaizer Chiefs

Posted in News on Feb 20, 2013.



Kaizer Chiefs will be looking to consolidate their position on top of the Absa Premiership standings when they visit Black Leopards at the old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on Wednesday, 20 February 2013.



The Glamour Boys go into the encounter high in confidence having returned to the top of the league standings following their moral boosting win against Free State Stars. The Technical Team was pleased with the player’s “attitude” and “mental strength” which will go a long way in seeing the Club achieving its objectives come the end of the season.



Chiefs have an edge in this fixture having claimed eight wins, four draws while the hosts have won five.



Leopards do not have a great home record against the Soweto side, with five losses and just two wins from eight meetings.



The encounter between the two sides early in the season will forever be remembered for being interrupted by the hail storm at the time when the Glamour Boys were on cruise control leading by 2-0 courtesy of Bernard Parker and Kingston Nkhatha.



Chiefs won the replay of that game later thanks to goals from Siphiwe Tshabalala and Bernard Parker.



The clash will also see former Chiefs players, Abbas Amidu and stylish Michael Nkambule coming up against their former teammates, while Kingston Nkhatha should relish an opportunity to renew friendship with his former teammates at Black Leopards.



Kick-off is at 19:30
