Kaizer Chiefs’ next Betway Premiership fixture comes quickly after the Soweto derby, with Amakhosi travelling to face Richards Bay on Tuesday, 3 March at the uMhlathuze Sports Complex.
Kick-off is scheduled for 19:30, in what promises to be a demanding midweek encounter for both sides.
RESPONSE AFTER SOWETO DERBY HEARTBREAK
The match arrives at an important moment in Kaizer Chiefs’ season. Just days after suffering a heavy 3-0 Soweto derby defeat to Orlando Pirates.
Amakhosi must quickly reset mentally and physically as the league campaign enters a decisive phase. The derby result halted momentum that Chiefs had carefully built over recent months, placing added pressure on the squad to respond immediately.
KAIZER CHIEFS’ REMAINING FIXTURES
HOME GAMES
Amakhosi will also host Durban City (15 March), Magesi FC (21 March), TS Galaxy (12 April) and Chippa United on the final day of the season.
If Kaizer Chiefs are serious about staying in the race, home form must be reliable. These are fixtures where dropped points would place additional pressure on their away schedule.
AWAY MATCHES
Kaizer Chiefs travel to Richards Bay (3 March), Orbit College (7 April), Magesi FC (15 April), Polokwane City (18 April), Mamelodi Sundowns (6 May), Sekhukhune United (10 May) and AmaZulu (16 May).
The trip to Loftus Versfeld to face Sundowns stands out. Taking home points there could be season-defining
