Zwane to topple Yusuf Maart in the Kaizer Chiefs side?

Everyone knows that 22-year-old Samkelo Zwane is a gifted technician with the ball. However, there were questions about his defensive abilities and tactical smartness when his side was out of possession. Manager Nasreddine Nabi has seen the player make strides in both of those departments lately, and that’s a good thing for all concerned. However, skipper Yusuf Maart might be under threat. The 29-year-old is still a key operator for Chiefs but it’s easy to envisage him being replaced by Zwane in the engine room within the next two years. Zwane wouldn’t be a like-for-like replacement for Maart as the two athletes are slightly different player profiles, but they largely operate in the same portion of the pitch.

Date set for Kaizer Chiefs vs Sundowns

Kaizer Chiefs’ reward for thumping SuperSport 4-0 in the Carling Knockout is a quarter-final clash with the mighty Mamelodi Sundowns. This showdown takes place at FNB Stadium on Saturday 02 November at 18:00. Don’t miss it! Meanwhile, Richards Bay met Cape Town City earlier that day at the King Zwelithini. On Sunday, TS Galaxy hosts Orlando Pirates’ conquerers Magesi at Mbombela. Marumo Gallants meet holders Stellenbosch in the late game.


Recent record doesn’t make for good viewing

Amakhosi’s recent results against the Brazilians don’t paint the prettiest picture. A controversial 2-1 win for Masandawana extended their unbeaten streak against Chiefs to nine matches across all competitionsYou have to go back to April 2021 for Chiefs’ last win over Sundowns in any competition. Ironically, Uruguayan Gaston Sirino was a goal-scorer for Sundowns on that afternoon. Can he stick the knife into his former employers when the sides meet again? He’s returned from injury sooner than expected and got himself a goal against SuperSport which is a massive bonus for Nasreddine Nabi.


Where should Mofokeng move and when should he make the leap?
