Predicting Kaizer Chiefs' XI against AS Simba in CAF Confederation Cup - Ex-Mamelodi Sundowns star to partner Sibongiseni Mthethwa as Flavio Silva leads the attack?

Petersen is expected to resume his duty between the posts to replace Fiacre Ntwari, who deputised him in the Carling Knockout game against Stellenbosch.  

Solomons has been solid as opposed to Reeve Frosler, who had taken over from the injured Thabiso Monyane, who is close to full fitness.   

The coming of Paseka Mako and Nkanyiso Shinga has seen the former Golden Arrows defender up his game. He is expected to continue with his shift.    

The Amakhosi skipper, when fit, is one of Chiefs' main guys at the heart of the team's defence.  

The 31-year-old has seemingly replaced Aden McCarthy at the back and is a more solid option than the Amakhosi graduate.  

This is his season, the player nicknamed Ox has turned himself into a regular starter, but he might need to do more to protect the Amakhosi backline.   

This is a competition where away goals matter, which explains why Thabo Cele might pair Mthethwa to ensure total dominance and cautious play in the midfield.   

The Bafana Bafana international has a chance to prove to Hugo Broos that he should always be in the national team.   

The DR Congo international will be playing in his native country, a reason to underline his worth and maybe convince the national team's technical team that he can be considered again.  

The speedy attacker is a trusted player in the Amakhosi team. His speed and dribbling skills are always on top, just that he struggles to be clinical.   

Mayo is, seemingly, the team's first-choice striker, but that might change once Etiosa Ighodaro establishes himself in the team. 

Flavio da Silva, who is the only Amakhosi player to score two goals this season, is also another strong candidate who is hoping to make his case.
