Chiefs Line-Up: The Changes Nabi Could Make

Chiefs Line-Up: The Changes Nabi Could Make

As Kaizer Chiefs prepare for their biggest game of the season, head coach Nasreddine Nabi is set to make changes in all departments in the hope that it will finally bring success to the team. 

Amakhosi take on Soweto rivals Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final at Moses Mabhida Stadium this afternoon, and a few changes are set to be made for different reasons.

Bradley Cross is out serving suspension, so Edmilson Dove is expected to start at left back, with Inacio Miguel set to play in central defence alongside Zitha Kwinika, who has been featuring recently due to the injuries that have hit Amakhosi. 

In midfield, Thabo Cele looks set to be included in the first XI after starting last weekend's Soweto Derby at FNB Stadium on bench. Captain Yusuf Maart is likely to partner Cele in midfield, with Nkosingiphile Ngcobo playing in a more advanced role.

Wandile Duba is back in the team after serving suspension last weekend. As the side's top scorer, he will have a huge role to play after Chiefs struggled to cause too many problems for the Pirates defence in the league match last weekend. Glody Lilepo and Pule Mmodi are likely to complete the front three.

Possible line-up: Bvuma, Solomons, Kwinika, Miguel, Dove, Maart, Cele, Ngcobo, Mmodi, Lilepo Duba
