  • Brandon Petersen, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    GOALKEEPER: Brandon Petersen

    He kept a clean sheet in the last match against Kabuscorp and was the hero in the penalty shootout, something that gives him confidence going into the Usuthu clash.

  • Dillan Solomons, Kaizer Chiefs, May 2025Backpage

    RIGHT-BACK: Dillan Solomons

    Solomons was on fire against Kabuscorp and raised his hand to be considered ahead of Reeve Frosler again.  

  • Bradley Cross, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    LEFT-BACK: Bradley Cross

    With Paseka Mako working on getting back to full fitness, Chiefs have good cover in Cross.    

  • Inacio Miguel, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    CENTRE-BACK: Inacio Miguel

    One player almost assured to start, the experienced defender will have to show his leadership qualities against Usuthu.    

  • Zitha Kwinika, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    CENTRE-BACK: Zitha Kwinika

    With Chiefs having kept a clean sheet against Kabuscorp, the coaches might not want to change things at the back.   

  • Sibongiseni Mthethwa of Kaizer ChiefsBackpagepix

    CENTRAL MIDFILDER: Sibongiseni Mthethwa

    Mthethwa is enjoying regular football and is set to continue operating in the engine room.

  • Thabo Cele, Kaizer Chiefs, August 2025Backpage

    CENTRAL MIDFIELDER: Thabo Cele

    Lately starting from the bench, Cele might be back as Chiefs seek to return to how they started the season.  

  • Pule Mmodi, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    WINGER ATTACKER: Pule Mmodi

    The quick player's speed could create problems for AmaZulu's defence. 

  • Glody Lilepo, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    RIGHT ATTACKER: Glody Lilepo

    The DR Congo international has just one goal this season in seven league games and that gives him more responsibility to improve himself.   

  • Gaston Sirino of Kaizer ChiefsBackpagepix

    ATTACKING MIDFIELDER: Gaston Sirino

    His experience is always key for the Soweto giants and can use that to hurt AmaZulu.   

  • Khanyisa Mayo of Kaizer ChiefsBackpagepix

    CENTRE-FORWARD: Khanyisa Mayo

    After scoring on his Amakhosi debut against Marumo Gallants last week, it seems he is the kind of striker Chiefs have been looking for.
