Kaizer Chiefs will likely have most of their key players ahead of the Nedbank Cup finalagainst Orlando Pirates this weekend.

The two giants battle it out in the final on Saturday afternoon at the Moses Mabhida Stadium. Amakhosi go into the match, having lost to Pirates 2-1 this past weekend. With their fifth straight Soweto Derbyloss, Chiefs need to play their best match of the season if they want to claim the Nedbank Cup on Saturday.

This past weekend, Amakhosi were without Miguel Inacio and Wandile Duba. Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi explained why Thabo Cele came in late in the game and Miguel did not feature despite sitting on the bench.

“Cele is coming from an injury, and he hasn’t fully trained, and that why he was not starting, not being fully fit to start the game, or to play 90 minutes,” Nabi said as per iDiski Times.

“Inacio, the same thing, he’s coming from an injury, and he wasn’t fully fit to give 100% performance.”

Duba, who has been Kaizer Chiefs’ best player in recent weeks, was suspended for the derby but will be back for the Nedbank Cup final. The 20-year-old has played a big role in helping Amakhosi reach this stage of the competition.

Following the team’s semi-final win over Sundowns, Duba promised Chiefs fans that the club will bring home the Nedbank Cup.
