The Changes Chiefs Could Make In Defence

The Changes Chiefs Could Make In Defence

Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi will have a lot to think about when they face Polokwane City, with the Siya crew establishing that there could be changes at the back. 

The Soweto giants, who have not kept a clean sheet at all in the Betway Premiership, squandered a 2-goal lead against Royal AM over the weekend, dropping valuable points on home soil.

Angolan defedner Inacio Miguel is available for selection after serving a suspension for a red card he picked up and is expected to start ahead of Given Msimango, who struggled at the back against Royal AM. 

Another change expected for the clash against Rise and Shine this weekend is at right back. Reeve Frosler is out serving suspension for one last time, while Dillan Solomons is a doubt after picking up what looked like a hamstring injury against Royal AM. 

Njabulo Blom, who came on for Solomons in the first half last Saturday, looks set to start at right back. Blom can play at right back or in the middle of the park, giving Nabi options in a tough situation like he is in right now. 

Rushwin Dortley and Bradley Cross are expected to complete the back four.

Amakhosi go into the game on the back of not keeping a clean sheet in all the matches they have played and Nabi will be hoping that they would finally keep their opponents from scoring.
