Chiefs bounced back to winning ways in the league after edging Orlando Pirates 1-0 in the Soweto derby last weekend and will be looking to keep up with rivals for continental places on the log.
Amakhosi find themselves lying fifth on the table, three points behind third-placed Orlando Pirates and five points behind second-placed SuperSport United.
Arthur Zwane has already confirmed that striker Ashley Du Preez will miss this afternoon's clash after failing to recover from the injury he picked up against Orlando Pirates.
Richards Bay, meanwhile, will be looking to avoid a fourth straight defeat after a 2-1 loss to Stellenbosch last weekend compounded their dip in form with a third consecutive defeat.
The Natal Rich Boyz have since dropped down to fourth on the table, equal on points with Chiefs and will be searching for their first win since mid-January.
The Glamour Boys will have a chance to complete a league double over Richards Bay after securing a 1-0 win in the reverse fixture, with Dillan Solomons netting the game's only goal from the penalty spot.
