    Amakhosi find themselves on the wrong side of the log after a string of poor results.

    Nabi risks becoming the first Chiefs coach in the PSL era to finish outside the top eight in his debut season.

    That possibility brings added pressure as the season nears its end.

    To make matters worse, he will go into the derby without key striker Wandile Duba, who is suspended.

    Possible XI:Bvuma, Solomons, Cross, Msimango, Dove, Maart, Cele, Sirino, Lilepo, Mmodi, Du Preez
