Kaizer Chiefs and Bloemfontein Celtic will play their last DStv Premiership game for the year 2020 when they come face-to-face at FNB Stadium this evening. The two teams will be involved in continental competitions next week to wrap up the year.
The hosts come into the match on the back of a loss against SuperSport United, while the visitors won their midweek game against Baroka.

The midfield has not changed for the third game in a row with Njabulo Blom, Anthony Akumu Agay, Nkogisigiphile Ngcobo and Lebogang Manyama all helping in defence and linking up with attackers.
In the attacking department Amakhosi will keep Khama Billiat and Leonardo Castro.
The referee is Tshidiso Mkhwanazi. He will be assisted Zakhele Siwela and Lubabalo Pitsha. The fourth official will be Othusitse Daniels.
