Just like last week, coach Ernst Middendorp has decided to make another five changes to the line-up for this afternoon’s Soweto Derby against arch-rivals Orlando Pirates.
The five changes are Daniel Akpeyi who comes on for Itumeleng Khune, Reeve on for Yagan Sasman, George Maluleka for Anthony Agay, Kearyn Baccus for Bernard Parker and Leonardo Castro replacing Khama Billiat.
Daniel Akpeyi is back to mind the posts after missing last weekend’s Nedbank Last 16 game.
Coach Middendorp has opted for three defenders with Kgotso Moleko on the right, Mulomowandau Mathoho at the centre of Chiefs’ defence and Daniel Cardoso who will be on his left.
The midfield will see Willard Katsande joined by George Maluleka. Baccus will operate on the left wing and Frosler on the right.
Going forward, Amakhosi will have Lebogang Manyama supplying the lethal duo of Samir Nurković and Castro upfront.
The referee for this afternoon’s Absa Premiership tie between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates is Luxolo Badi. He will be assisted by are Emmanuel de Sani and Shaun Olive. The fourth official is Jelly Chavani.
South Africa’s greatest sporting event, the Soweto Derby kicks off at 15:30 at a sold-out FNB Stadium in Johannesburg.
