Kaizer Chiefs go into their clash with Sekhukhune United on solid form, winning eight of their last 12 PSL matches despite a recent MTN8 Cup exit. They have a favorable history against Sekhukhune, with five wins in ten meetings and are tipped for a narrow 1-0 victory. Sekhukhune have shown mixed results, managing just two wins in their last 13 matches but enter this match with some renewed optimism after an MTN8 win. Chiefs remain the favorites heading into the game.

Chiefs form has been good, stretching back to last season with eight wins in their last 12 PSL games. They did lose in the MTN8 Cup this past weekend, but are backed to get past Sekhukhune on Wednesday.

Key Stats - Chiefs in Good Form Going back to last Season


  • Kaizer Chiefs have won 8 of their last 12 PSL matches. 
  • Kaizer Chiefs have seen BTTS No in 5 of their last 7 matches. 
  • Sekhukhune United have lost 4 of their last 8 away PSL matches.

Chiefs Lead H2H


Chiefs have won five of their 10 matches against Sekhukhune United. There have been two draws and three wins the other way.

Chiefs Looking to Bounce back after Cup exit


Chiefs have won eight of their last 12 PSL matches. However, they exited the MTN8 Cup on Sunday at the first hurdle as another shot at silverware disappeared.

After a 2-0 loss at Siwelele, Amakhosi drew 1-1 at Mamelodi Sundowns and won 2-0 at Sekhukhune United. They ended last term with a 1-0 win at AmaZulu and a 1-0 home defeat to Chippa United as they ended third in the PSL. 

Amakhosi began this season with a steady 3-1 win at Kruger United in the league. Their last match brought a 1-0 loss to Golden Arrows in the MTN8 at home, despite outshooting Arrows 21-7.

Sekhukhune United Struggling for Form


Sekhukhune’s last 13 fixtures across all competitions last term only saw two victories. This campaign has begun with two wins under new coach Cedric Kaze.

A 2-0 home defeat vs Kaizer Chiefs preceded two draws. A 1-1 draw at Richards Bay was followed by a 2-2 home draw vs Siwelele on the final day. 

This season began with a 1-0 home win over Durban City despite having just 38% possession. On Sunday, they won 4-3 at AmaZulu in the MTN8 quarterfinals after extra time. 

Kaizer Chiefs vs Sekhukhune United Predicted Lineups & News


Kaizer Chiefs (4-2-3-1): Petersen; Monyane, Kwinika, Miguel, Frosler; Ndlovu, Maboe; Vilakazi, Chislett, Phili; Duba. 

Striker Flavio Da Silva is doubtful for this match. Ethan Chislett could return to the XI after shaking off a knock. 

Defender Rushwin Dortley is out injured. Langelihle Phili could make his first start on the left wing after joining from Stellenbosch.

Sekhukhune United (4-2-3-1): Buthelezi; Mashiloane, Cardoso, Matsimbi, Kazeem; Mkhize, Khupe; Mokhoane, Rammala, Mojela; Ndlovu.

Bright Ndlovu will return to the XI up front after a partial rest in the MTN8. Keletso Makgalwa has been sold despite topping the 2024-25 PSL assist charts. 

Chibuike Ohizu is awaiting his work permit. Daniel Cardoso may return in defence in place of Nyiko Mobbie.

Verdict

I'm backing a narrow Chiefs win. I'm tipping a 1-0 victory.
