Head to Head

Kaizer Chiefs and Marumo Gallants have played each other twice, with Chiefs winning 3-1 away last season, and the other match was a 0-0 draw in 2020.

Kaizer Chiefs Form

Kaizer Chiefs continued to slide down the Diski table after they were sunk by a 90th minute goal to lose 5-4 against Royal AM last weekend, despite the heroics of Mduduzi Shabalala, who scored a hat-trick in the match.

Chiefs sit 12th in the Diski log on 13 points from 12 games, with four wins, seven losses and one draw. They have scored 19 goals and conceded 22.

Chiefs have a fair home record this season, with three wins, four losses, and they have scored seven goals and conceded six in those seven matches.

Kaizer Chiefs have lost three matches in a row and have leaked 12 goals in their last 5 games. A better defensive effort is needed to give them a chance to pick up a much needed three points this weekend.

Kaizer Chiefs Team News & Injuries

Coach Vela Khumalo recently commented that the top four was the target for Kaizer Chiefs this season, but he will need to get the team back to winning to achieve that goal.

Khumalo will likely field a similar side that narrowly lost last weekend.

Mduduzi Shabalala will be full of confidence after his hat-trick and can add more goals to his season.

Marumo Gallants Form

After a great start to the Diski Challenge this season, which saw Marumo Gallants top the league after four rounds, the Limpopo based outfit have tumbled down the table after a string of poor results.

Gallants are languishing in 13th place on the Diski log with 11 points from 12 matches. They have scored 14 goals and conceded 30, the most in the league.

Marumo lost 5-2 Chippa United Reserves last Saturday, which was their fourth defeat in succession, and have only managed a single victory in their previous 10 matches.

Equally disappointing is they leaked 18 goals in their last five Diski matches.

Gallants will require a vast improvement to give them a chance of winning the match, but can they stem the flow of goals at the back?
