Possible Line-Ups: Chiefs To Keep Blom, Downs To Bank On Ribeiro?

Following their wins during the weekend, Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns are unlikely to drastic changes to their line-ups when they meet at FNB Stadium this afternoon.

Chiefs, the hosts this afternoon, beat AmaZulu 3-1 at Moses Mabhida Stadium, as coach Nasreddine Nabi introduced Njabulo Blom and Wandile Duba to the starting line-up.

Blom started in midfield alongside captain Yusuf Maart, but was taken off early in the second half as he works his way back to full fitness. Blom is likely to get another opportunity in midfield, with Mduduzi Shabalala forming part of the three in the centre.

In goal, Fiacre Ntwari is expected to keep his place, with the same back four of Reeve Frosler, Inacio Miguel, Rushwin Dortley and Bradley Cross like to start. 

Amakhosi are likely to go with a front three of Wandile Duba, Gaston Sirino and Ranga Chivaviro. 

Sundowns, meanwhile, are expected to start with Ronwen Williams in goal, with a back three of Rivaldo Coetzee, Mosa Lebusa and Grant Kekana, with Thapelo Morena and Asekho Tiwani as the wing backs.
