The Changes Chiefs Could Make For Downs

The Changes Chiefs Could Make For Downs

Nasreddine Nabi will be back on the bench against Mamelodi Sundowns.

Kaizer Chiefs look set to make a few changes to their starting line-up when they take on Mamelodi Sundowns in the Betway Premiership on Wednesday evening. 

With three victories in as many matches, Amakhosi are determined to extend their run of maximum points to put themselves in a good position of battling for the Premiership title.

They have an opportunity to send a strong message by beating Sundowns and, to do that, they are going to need a strong line-up. After their victory over Richards Bay at FNB Stadium last week, and the return of head coach Nasreddine Nabi, a few changes are expected to be made in the team.

The Soweto giants are expected to be without central defender Aden McCarthy, who sustained an injury in their Premiership clash against Richards Bay last week.

Zitha Kwinika is expected to start alongside Inacio Miguel, while Reeve Frosler or Paseka Mako could play at left back in place of Bradley Cross. Amakhosi assistant coach Cedric Kaze revealed that Cross has been sick recently and it's unclear at this stage if he will be part of the starting line-up.

Chiefs, tough, have enough cover at left back and are not likely to be too worried if Cross is not available.
