The sides will be meeting for the second time this season after Amakhosi won the MTN8 quarter-final tie on penalties at a sold out Danie Crave Stadium.
Arthur Zwane's charges won back-to-back matches for the first time and also clinched their first away win after edging Swallows 2-1 in midweek.
The Soweto giants will be without former Stellenbosch star Zitha Kwinika and George Matlou due to suspension.
Chiefs have also confirmed that Khama Billiat, Eric Mathoho, Happy Mashiane and Phathutshedzo Nange are still not available after recently recovering from injuries and illness in the case of Nange.
Stellies, on the other hand, secured their second victory in three matches after thrashing Maritzburg United 3-0 on Tuesday evening.
