Back
Four former Amakhosi players will be returning to FNB Stadium on Tuesday nite to face Stellenbosch FC in the Betway Premiership, which might be an awkward reunion for Kaizer Chiefs. The players are trying to make Stellenbosch regret releasing them.
The pairing of Stellenbosch's Given Msimango with George Matlou, Ashley Du Preez, and Njabulo Blom adds an interesting plot point to a matchup that might prove pivotal for both teams.
The Gavin Hunt-coached Stellenbosch will be looking to make the most of the situation and cause trouble for the Soweto giants at home. The four ex-Chiefs will have a chance to show what they can do against teams they're acquainted with.
In the meanwhile, Chiefs coach Fernando Da Cruz will be counting on his starting eleven to put on a show for the home town crowd.
Frosler, Miguel, Leaner, Monyane, Mako, Mthethwa, Shabalala, Vilakazi, and Duba will make up the starting lineup for the hosts.
Stephens, Nkwali, Vena, Msimango, Lebitso, Mashego, Blom, Du Preez, Matlou, Platjies, and Kwayiba will be Stellenbosch's counterattack.
Following the international break and the MTN8 final, South African domestic football continues with three further Betway Premiership matchups, all of which kick off at 7:30pm.
A Reversal of Fortune for the Pirates
After losing the MTN8 final to Mamelodi Sundowns 2-0, Orlando Pirates will be looking to get back on track when they host TS Galaxy at Orlando Amstel Arena.
Not only will the Buccaneers be under intense scrutiny to make a good showing, but TS Galaxy are also dealing with the fallout of a bad run of games and the uncertainty surrounding coach Bernard Parker.
The Pirates' starting eleven includes Chaine, Sibisi, Seema, Sigomoshe, Ndaba, Mokobodi, Selepe, Masilela, Lungu, Appollis, and Radiopane.
Tape, Mhlongo, Mncwango, Mathebula, Mbunjana, Zindoga, Mvelase, Kokora, Xulu, George, and Letsoalo will be the start of Galaxy.
Not to be Missed: Sundowns and AmaZulu
In a match at Princess Magogo Stadium, reigning champions Mamelodi Sundowns will take on Richards Bay in an effort to keep their winning streak alive.
Sundowns have chosen Rayners, Mokoena, Williams, Ndamane, Matuludi, Khoza, Basadien, Matthews, Ndlovu, and Allende.
In their pursuit of crucial league points, Richards Bay will aim to capitalise on home field advantage.
In another matchup between KwaZulu-Natal teams, Durban City will play host to AmaZulu at Chatsworth Stadium. The match might be close.
Everyone in the nation will have their eyes on one of the four bouts when they begin at 7:30 p.m.
On the other hand, most football fans will be talking about the Chiefs' rematch with Stellenbosch and the Pirates' reaction to their cup final losers this evening.
