Kaizer Chiefs have named their starting line-up for tonight’s Betway Premiership clash against Richards Bay at uMhlathuze Stadium.
The Glamour Boys are looking to end their sub-par run of form that has seen them lose two league outings on the trot subsequently dropping to fifth on the log standings.
They went down 2-1 to Stellenbosch FC in midweek at FNB Stadium before being hammered 3-0 by Orlando Pirates at the same venue this past weekend.
Amakhosi currently sit on 30 points in 17 outings but could climb as high as third if they come out victorious tonight.
The Natal Rich Boyz on the other hand are equally desperate for points having failed to claim a victory in their last three outings in all competitions, losing two games and drawing one, to sit in 12th spot.
Chiefs came out victorious when the two sides last met with a 1-0 victory at FNB Stadium, courtesy of a strike from Gastón Sirino.
In the seven meetings, Amakhosi have won five matches with the KwaZulu-Natal side winning two. There has been no draws.
Here’s how both teams line-up:
Richards Bay Starting XI: Otieno, Sikhakhane, Mntungwa, Zulu, Mcineka, Mthethwa, Gumede, Mthembu, Mahala, Zikhali, Barns
Subs: Magoola, Mutizwa, Ngema, Mabuya, Mzobe, Ndelu, Khumalo, Zama, Tuli
Chiefs Starting XI: Bvuma, Shinga, McCarthy, Miguel ©, Solomons, Mthethwa, Maboe, Chislett, Velebayi, Sirino, Da Silva
Subs: Ntwari, Cross, Monyane, Ngcobo, Ndlovu, Shabalala, Lilepo, Du Preez, Baartman
The clash gets underway at 19:30.
