Kaizer Chiefs resume their DStv Premiership campaign with a trip to Golden Arrows on Saturday afternoon.
DStv Premiership
Teams: Golden Arrows v Kaizer Chiefs
Date: 31 December 2022
Venue: Moses Mabhida Stadium
Time: 15h30
Chiefs went to the FIFA World Cup break with their confidence high after a memorable 1-0 win over Orlando Pirates in the Soweto derby courtesy of a wonder strike by Yusuf Maart.
The Glamour, however, still have a lot of catching up to do, lying fourth on the standings, with 21 points, ten points behind leaders Mamelodi Sundowns.
Coach Arthur Zwane will no longer be able to call on the services of Njabulo Blom, who sealed a move to Major League Soccer side St Louis City SC last week.
Arrows, similarly, also went to the break on a high after beating Maritzburg United 2-0 and ended their four-game winless run.
Abafana Bes'thende will be looking to stay in the top eight, as they find themselves in eighth on the standings heading into this afternoon's clash.
Chiefs will be eager to redeem themselves after losing their two league matches against Arrows last season.
