Can Lazarous Kambole Get On The Scoresheet This Evening?

Can Lazarous Kambole Get On The Scoresheet This Evening?

Kaizer Chiefs are likely to be without two of their key attacking players and all eyes will be on Lazarous Kambole to continue where he left off last weekend.

The Soweto giants will host Mamelodi Sundowns at the Orlando Stadium this evening in a thrilling top-of-the-table clash which will greatly influence the title race in the final fixtures of the season.

However, Amakhosi have a few key casualties going into the encounter.

Samir Nurkovic, who scored a brace in the first leg against the Brazilians, is suspended for this evening's clash.

Meanwhile, there is a big question mark on Leonardo Castro's availability after he picked up an injury.

The Soweto side is not without other attacking options and their Zambian forward, in particular, could be full of confidence after he secured a crucial point for his side on Sunday.

Kambole scored his first goal for Chiefs against Stellenbosch in a 1-1 draw, with the player admitting that the goal drought has not been easy for him.

"The goal drought period has not been easy for me.

"I had to work hard and use negative feedback to build my courage and to turn everything into positivity. I am proud to have passed through that phase and looking forward to greater things," he said on Chiefs' official website.

About the Sundowns clash, the 26-year-old said, "Playing Sundowns will be a very difficult game. Sundowns are a good team, play good football and they are title contenders. Both teams stand a chance of winning the game. We will give it our all to win it. We just need to stick to our plan and unleash our power to continue leading the log."
