Amakhosi landed in Ndola and are ready to take on their continental rivals in a game that carries high stakes for both sides. Amakhosi and Team ya Ziko are both winless after two games, and to increase their probability of reaching the knockout stage, points from this game will matter most.

After failing to collect maximum points in their last two games before the Premier Soccer League took a break in December, Amakhosi resume the campaign with some pressure on their shoulders. On paper, their game against Chippa United was expected to be an easy one given the Chilli Boys' poor form this season; however, the Soweto giants were forced to share points after a goalless draw. The Glamour Boys dropped more points when they were held to another goalless draw by TS Galaxy.

Amakhosi have another chance to close in on Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates in the league standings. After being held to a goalless draw by Chippa United, the Glamour Boys will be looking to return to winning ways. Chiefs are on a three-match winless run across competitions, given their last victory came against Orbit College in early November.

Predicting Chiefs' XI to face Chippa - Chislett and Shinga to make long-awaited Amakhosi debut?

After a gruelling start to the CAF Confederation Cup group stage campaign, Amakhosi return to undertake their Premier Soccer League duties. At the top of their agenda is to win both games before the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) break in order to keep their winning run in the league going. Should the Glamour Boys manage to collect maximum points from the two games ahead, they will go level with Orlando Pirates point-wise.

‘Time to appoint Mosimane as Chiefs' new coach! Now rest Miguel until 2027'

Amakhosi clawed their way back to earn a 1-1 draw against Egyptian giants Zamalek in their second CAF Confederation Cup Group D clash at New Peter Mokaba Stadium on Saturday, 29 November.

Ben Youssef makes bold admission and warns Chiefs ahead of Zamalek CAF CC duel

The Glamour Boys suffered a defeat in their first Group C game, and the tactician believes the loss is a harsh result. To him, a draw would have been a far better outcome given how his Chiefs went toe-to-toe against the Egyptian outfit. Next, Amakhosi will play another Egyptian side, but this time around, the challenge is expected to be even huge because Zamalek are not only heavyweights at home but are also continental giants.

Chiefs cautioned after CAF CC defeat - 'We have to question the midfield'

Amakhosi's CAF Confederation Cup group stage campaign started with disappointment after going down 2-1 to Al Masry of Egypt. Despite showing determination to fight back while playing away from home, Chiefs were undone by poor defending as Al Masry grabbed the advantage to strike the winning goal. After the loss in Suez, three players have been singled out, and Inacio Miguel was specifically blamed for his mistake that handed the Egyptian side a glorious chance to punish Amakhosi.

Amakhosi’s CAF Confederation Cup journey began with heartbreak, as they suffered a late setback in their opening Group D clash against Al Masry at Suez Stadium on Sunday, 23 November. Despite moments of resilience and a spirited equaliser, defensive lapses proved costly in the closing stages, leaving the Glamour Boys empty-handed in Egypt.

'Match fixing; Vilakazi cooked Pirates player & Mthethwa is Player of the Season'

Amakhosi recorded their biggest win this season as they outclassed PSL debutants who enjoyed the services of Orlando Pirates' loanee Monnapule Saleng. The win propelled the Glamour Boys to the second position with the same points as Mamelodi Sundowns and three more than arch-rivals Bucs. The victory brought back memories of how Chiefs started the season before they started struggling amid uncertainty around Nasreddine Nabi's future.

After returning to winning ways, Amakhosi are keen to keep the run going since they must ensure they are not lagging far behind their title rivals. However, Monnapule Saleng's Orbit College, who have won their last two league games, are expected to give them a challenge.
