Kaizer Chiefs are keen on putting pressure on Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates at the top of the league. A win over SuperSport United will be needed this evening.
BETWAY PREMIERSHIP: SUPERSPORT UNITED VS KAIZER CHIEFS
According to the DStv guide, the game will be live on SuperSport’s channel 202. Kickoff will be at 17:30 from the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.
SAMKELO ZWANE TIPPED FOR BAFANA BAFANA
Kaizer Chiefs supporters love the boy to bits. Former Bafana Bafana midfielder Linda Buthelezi seemingly feels the same way.
As reported last weekend, Amakhosi beat a feisty SuperSport United 4-0 in Polokwane to advance to the Carling Knockout quarterfinal. The same game saw the 22-year-old Samkelo Zwane deliver his best-ever performance in a Kaizer Chiefs jersey.
According to Buthelezi, Zwane has a big future with Amakhosi and has the quality to replace Sphephelo Sithole at Bafana Bafana.
“I still say Zwane can shine and be a star at Kaizer Chiefs if he can be given a chance, just like Jayden Adams,” Buthelezi told FARPost.
“That boy can be a leader one day as long as he can be given time. What a brilliant passer, what a thinker, his strength and all that. He can compete with [Sphephelo] Sithole. He is a good replacement for Sithole.
“As a midfielder, you need to have a character. I don’t care whether they like you or not, but you must have a character for the team. These are team players, and you must be a team player,” Buthelezi concluded on the Kaizer Chiefs midfielder.
