Here’s something Kaizer Chiefs’ fans haven’t been able to brag about in many, many seasons: Their team is TOP of the Betway Premiership standings!
After 180 minutes of action in the 2025/26 season, Amakhosi are looking down on the 15 other teams.
Only goal
This comes after Kaizer Chiefs made it two wins from as many matches this season against Polokwane City at the FNB Stadium on Wednesday evening.
Siphesihle Ndlovu scored the only goal of the match in the 79th minute.
Amakhosi were coming off a 2-0 win away to Stellenbosch FC in their opener last Sunday.
The Glamour Boys thus boast a perfect six points after two matches this season and are ahead of Durban City, Marumo Gallants and Sekhukhune United on goal difference.
Perhaps most satisfying for the Amakhosi faithful is that they are six points ahead of bitter rivals Orlando Pirates who are down in a lowly 14th spot at present.
Kaizer Chiefs have also scored three goals without conceding a goal thus far.
The Glamour Boys will next be in action at home against Richards Bay on Tuesday, 19 August at 19:30.
