Four Kaizer Chiefs stars including Wandile Duba & Inacio Miguel at risk of missing the Soweto Derby against Orlando Pirates

Kaizer Chiefs have remained with six Premier Soccer League matches to conclude the season.

They are hoping to qualify for the MTN8 for the next edition after missing out on the previous one.

It explains why they need to win all their remaining games, including the Soweto derby against old rivals Orlando Pirates scheduled for May 3.

On Sunday, the Glamour Boys will be away at Loftus Versfeld Stadium against Mamelodi Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup semi-final game.

They know it is a vital game since a win will keep alive their chances of ending a decade-long trophy drought.

Amakhosi will then play Chippa United and Marumo Gallants in the Premier Soccer League fixtures before taking on Orlando Pirates in the Soweto derby.

There are several players who might not play the second Soweto Derby this season since they are at risk of getting suspended.

Wandile Duba, who has scored five goals for the club this season, dependable center-back Inacio Miguel, winger Pule Mmodi, Mduduzi Shabalala and Tashreeq Morris have three yellow cards, just one away from suspension.

It puts coach Nasreddine Nabi in a precarious situation because he needs wins.

It will be interesting to see how the Glamour Boys' technical team and the players manage the situation.

Having lost the initial meeting by a solitary goal, Amakhosi will be hoping to avenge the defeat.
