Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi has made changes to his usual starting line-up for the game against Richards Bay FC.
The two teams lock horns in a Betway Premiership at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium TONIGHT.
Kick-off is at 19:30.
Nabi has decided to start with Brandon Petersen in the absence of the injured Fiacre Ntwari.
Given Msimango comes in for the suspended Inacio Miguel while Sibongiseni Mthethwa gets his first start of the season in midfield.
Furthermore, Pule Mmodi starts while Ashley du Preez leads the attack against The Natal Rich Boyz.
Meanwhile, Chiefs have confirmed that tickets for this encounter against Richards Bay FC have all been sold.
This will be the first meeting of the season between the two sides, and both teams are desperate for maximum points.
Chiefs head into this encounter sitting in ninth position with seven points from their opening five league games.
The Natal Rich Boyz, on the other hand, are placed 13th on the Betway Premiership log with five points from seven games.
Chiefs will be without Inacio Miguel who is suspended for two games after being shown a red in the club’s previous match.
It is slowly becoming a trend for Chiefs fans to fill up the stadiums whenever their team is playing.
Nonetheless, this shows how hungry their fans are to see the club do well under the tutelage of Nasreddine Nabi.
This trend started in Bloemfontein when Chiefs played their opening game of the season with Marumo Gallants.
In addition, Amakhosi’s last competitive encounter against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Knockout Cup was also a sold out affair.
