Cape Town City vs Kaizer Chiefs Predictions

City have struggled of late but they have a great record against Chiefs. I’m backing the hosts to have a ‘new manager bounce’ in a narrow win.

Cape Town City have won 4 of their last 7 home PSL matches.
Cape Town City have kept clean sheets in 3 of their last 4 home PSL matches.
Kaizer Chiefs have lost 5 of their last 8 matches vs Cape Town City.
Kaizer Chiefs have lost 2 of their last 4 away matches.

Head to Head

These clubs have met on 20 occasions with Cape Town City holding a 9-7 lead with four draws.

City have won five of the last eight clashes between the sides. The last meeting finished 0-0 in March 2024.

Cape Town City Form & Team News

City have won just three of their 10 league matches this season. With the club languishing in 12th spot in the table, coach Eric Tinkler was sacked this week.

They ground out a 1-0 home win versus Polokwane City before losing 3-2 at Golden Arrows and 1-0 away at Sekhukhune United. A 1-0 win followed at Chippa United after a late goal.

Their last match saw a 1-0 home loss to AmaZulu despite outshooting their opponents 15-9.

Interim coach Muhsin Ertugral could shake up the starting XI. Experienced players like defender Lorenzo Gordinho and midfielder Kamohelo Mokotjo could be recalled.

Amadou Soukouna is expected to return to the XI up front. Jody Ah Shene is a doubt up front.

Cape Town City Predicted Lineup

Keet; Mkhize, Gordinho, Cupido, Nyama; Mokotjo, Petrus; Rhodes, Domingo, Gonzalez; Soukhouna.

Kaizer Chiefs Form & Team News

Amakhosi have struggled this season due to having one of the leakiest defences in the division. Prior to winning their last match, they had just one win in seven matches in all competitions.

A 4-0 home thrashing to Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Knockout Cup preceded a 2-1 home win over Richards Bay. A 2-2 home draw vs Royal AM preceded a 2-0 loss at Polokwane City.

They scored a 96th-minute equaliser to draw 1-1 at TS Galaxy. Their last match brought a deserved 1-0 home victory over Chippa United as they outshot their opponents 14-8.

Coach Nasreddine Nabi is set to be without winger Tebogo Potsane and left back Bradley Cross.

Thatayaone Ditlhokwe is set to play out of position at left back again. Youngster Mfundo Vilakazi could again be used as an impact substitute.

Kaizer Chiefs Predicted Lineup

Bvuma; Frosler, Msimango, Dortley, Ditlhokwe; Maart, Mthethwa; Du Preez, Shabalala, Duba; Chivaviro.

Verdict

Cape Town City v Kaizer Chiefs

I see City taking a narrow home win here.
