Kaizer Chiefs have received a timely boost ahead of their Carling Knockout Cup semi-final against Mamelodi Sundowns, with midfielder Siphesihle Ndlovu set to be available for the important encounter.

Ndlovu's availability will come as positive news for head coach Fernando da Cruz as Amakhosi prepare for one of their biggest challenges in the competition.

The midfielder could play an important role in the upcoming match, considering the quality and experience that Sundowns possess in the middle of the park. Chiefs will need their midfielders to remain disciplined, work hard and compete for possession if they want to secure a place in the final.

Ndlovu has been an important option for Amakhosi, and having him available gives Da Cruz another player to consider when selecting his starting lineup.

The upcoming semi-final is particularly important for Chiefs because they are determined to win silverware and give their supporters something to celebrate this season.

Amakhosi booked their place in the last four after producing a comeback victory against Siwelele FC. Chiefs initially found themselves behind but responded positively to secure a 2-1 win and continue their Carling Knockout Cup journey.

Their next opponents, Mamelodi Sundowns, will present a difficult challenge. The Tshwane giants have established themselves as one of the strongest teams in South African football and have plenty of experience competing in important knockout matches.

Da Cruz will therefore need his players to deliver an organised and disciplined performance throughout the encounter.

Having Ndlovu available could provide additional stability in midfield, especially against a Sundowns side that enjoys controlling possession and creating attacking opportunities through the middle.

Chiefs supporters will be hoping that the midfielder can make a valuable contribution if selected for the match.

With a place in the Carling Knockout Cup final at stake, both teams will have plenty to fight for.

For now, the midfielder's availability represents encouraging news for Amakhosi as they prepare for their meeting with Sundowns on the weekend of November 21-22.
