Chiefs are currently on a run of three straight wins, following their wins over SuperSport United, Swallows FC and Stellenbosch. The last time Amakhosi won three Premiership matches in a row was during the 2020/21 campaign, when they registered wins over AmaZulu, Cape Town City and Tshakhuma Tsha Madivhandila (now Marumo Gallants).
They now have a chance to extend this run to four matches, having last done so while Ernst Middendorp was at the helm in 2019/20. During that season, in fact, Chiefs registered eight victories in a row as they were cruising on top of the Premiership standings, only to then lose the title on the final day of the campaign to Mamelodi Sundowns, following a 1-1 draw to Baroka FC.

The current squad has moved up the standings in recent weeks after spending some time in the bottom half of the table early on in the campaign, moving to within just two points of leaders Sundowns. Chiefs are in fourth place and would love nothing more to get a victory, to prepare them for their tough assignments in the MTN8 and Premiership against AmaZulu and Orlando Pirates respectively before the end of the month.
