Predicting Kaizer Chiefs' XI to face Marumo Gallants - Who will replace the suspended duo of Gaston Sirino & Pule Mmodi as Amakhosi seek inspiration ahead of Soweto Derby showdown against Orlando Pirates?

The unpredictable Amakhosi are back at home where they will face off against an equally tricky Bahlabane ba Ntwa.

Kaizer Chiefs resume their top-eight bid by hosting Marumo Gallants in a Premier Soccer League match at FNB Stadium on Saturday.

The Soweto giants are fresh from dropping points away at Chippa United last weekend after failing to build on their huge Nedbank Cup semi-final victory over Mamelodi Sundowns.

GOAL predicts how Amakhosi coach Nasreddine Nabi could pick his starting side against Gallants.

    CENTRE-BACK: Edmilson Dove

    As the most experienced player at the back, the utility Mozambique defender has the pressure to ensure Chiefs are not breached.

    CENTRE-BACK: Zitha Kwinika

    A surprise starter against Chippa, Kwinika might have convinced Nabi to maintain his central defence partnership with Dove after the pair helped keep a clean sheet.

  • Yusuf Maart, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    CENTRAL MIDFIELDER: Yusuf Maart

    The Amakhosi skipper has a big role to guide Chiefs to banish the reputation as an inconsistent side, especially now that they are at a demanding stage of the season.

  • Thabo Cele, Kaizer ChiefsBackpage

    CENTRAL MIDFIELDER: Thabo Cele

    Since joining Chiefs in January, Cele has become one of Nabi's most trusted players.

  • Mduduzi Shabalala, Kaizer Chiefs, September 2024Backpagepix

    ATTACKING MIDFIELDER: Mduduzi Shabalala

    With Gaston Sirino suspended, this is an opportunity for Shabalala to start after seemingly losing the trust of Nabi in recent matches in which he was coming on from the bench.

  • Wandile Duba, Kaizer Chiefs, January 2025Backpagepix

    RIGHT ATTACKER: Wandile Duba

    Chiefs' top scorer in the league with five goals, Duba has been establishing himself as an important player in Nabi's side.

    LEFT ATTACKER: Ashley du Preez

    He was expected to start last weekend after his heroics against Sundowns but Nabi chose to bench the speed merchant who could now replace the suspended Pule Mmodi.

  • Tashreeq Morris & Pule Mmodi, Kaizer Chiefs, February 2025Backpagepix

    CENTRE-FORWARD: Tashreeq Morris

    The January signing could not fully utilise an opportunity to step in for Glody Lilepo against Chippa but might still be given the nod ahead of the DR Congo international.
