Kaizer Chiefs will host Maritzburg United in an MTN8 quarterfinal match on FNB this afternoon. It will be Gavin Hunt’s first game in charge of the Glamor Boys.
The new coach has had some setbacks ahead of the MTN8 match as some players are not available for the national team: Willard Katsande and Lebogang Manyama are suspended, while Samir Nurković, Dumsani Zuma and Mulomowandau Mathoho are still recovering from a variety of injuries. .
Hunt has decided to go with Itumeleng Khune in goal and with Reeve Frosler, Ramahlwe Mphahlele, Daniel Cardoso and Yagan Sasman at the baseline.
Mphahlele will be used as central, accompanying Cardoso in the center of defense. Khune will be the captain.
Anthony Agay Akumu will replace Katsande in the supporting role, receiving assistance in the middle from Nkosingiphile Ngcobo. Kearyn Baccus and Bernard Parker complete the midfield.
Leading will be Khama Billiat and Lazalous Kambole.
Leonardo Castro recovered just in time from his hamstring injury, but will start the game on the bench due to lack of fitness.
The referee is Luxolo Badi, while his assistants are Shaun Olive and Khamusi Razwimisani and Tshepo Nojila. Oscar Tsotetsi will be the fourth official.
The match between Chiefs and Maritzburg will begin at 3:00 p.m.
Spectators will not be allowed into the stadium. The game will be broadcast live on DStv SuperSport 2 and SABC 1, with commentary via Twitter, @KaizerChiefs and various SABC radio stations.
