Chiefs ended their ten-year trophy drought after defeating arch-rivals Orlando Pirates 2-1 in the Nedbank Cup final last weekend in Durban.
Nasreddine Nabi's charges will now be aiming to finish strong in the league as they find themselves ninth position, level on points with Chippa United heading into this afternoon's game.
The Soweto giants have failed to win their last five matches in the league.

Eric Tinkler's men are unbeaten in their last five league encounters, which includes a 1-1 draw against Magesi in their last eight encounter.
