Kaizer Chiefs and Maritzburg United have a date at Mbombela Stadium for the Telkom Knockout semi-final this coming Sunday.

Chiefs are currently topping the premiership log and are on top of their game. They thumped Orlando Pirates at Moses Mabhida Stadium two weeks ago after coach Ernst Middendorp brought back eight players after facing off with Chippa United.

Daniel Cardoso, Mulomowandau Mathoho, Yagan Sasman, Willard Katsande, George Maluleka and Leonardo Castro, who leads the attacking with Samir Nurkovi, Khama Billiat and Lebogang Manyama were fielded in the Pirates encounter, which proved to be a winning formula for Amakhosi. “We can refer back to the Chippa United midweek game. We brought in eight new players, and everyone understood it’s about winning,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Team of Choice, as United are called, have dug deep after they drew with Bloemfontein Celtics last Saturday, extending their unbeaten run from their last five matches. Coach Eric Tinkler said, “We’ve played three games in seven days, and it was noticeable after the Pirates game that there were a lot of tired legs. I’m not a big fan of making too many changes, but to a certain degree, we were forced to make those changes.” United is currently in position eight. Key players Daylon Claasen and Judas Moseamedi will put the pressure on Amakhosi’s backline. Kick-off will be at 15:00.
