Kaizer Chiefs will be looking for their second straight win in the DStv Premiership when they take on Soweto rivals Swallows FC at the Dobsonville Stadium on Wednesday evening.
The Dube Birds will come into this encounter looking to end their two-game winless run in the league after they fell to a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Golden Arrows after conceding a brace by Nduduzo Sibiya and goals from Pule Mmodi and Nqobeko Dlamini, respectively.
Amakhosi, meanwhile, comes into the match after they returned to winning ways when they secured a 2-1 win over SuperSport United at the FNB Stadium when a brace by Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana cancelled out Grant Margeman’s 15th-minute opener.
When the two teams squared off last season in the DStv Premiership, Amakhosi managed to walk away with four points out of a possible six after they claimed a 3-1 win away from home before playing out to a 2-2 draw against Swallows in the return leg.
Musa Nyatama only has one player on the sidelines in the form of Virgil Vries, who continues to be on the mend from a knee injury.
Arthur Zwane will be without two players for the clash as Khama Billiat remains sidelined with a knee injury and Lehlogonolo Matlou will miss the clash after receiving a red card against AmaZulu in the MTN8.
Mwape Musonda will be determined to rediscover his form in the league after he failed to find the back of the net in his last two appearances for Swallows.
Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana will be high in confidence after he opened his account for Chiefs following his brace in their recent victory over SuperSport United in the league.
