The Kaizer Chiefs begin their journey through the CAF Champions League for the 2020/21 season against Cameroonian champions PWD Bamenda in Limbe, Cameroon this afternoon.
Coach Gavin Hunt traveled with a team of 20 players out of 30 registered for this year’s competition.
The Kaizer Chiefs were last in action on Tuesday against Swallows FC, while their opponent Bamenda has had friendly matches as the league is still on hold in Cameroon. His last competitive match was in March.
Coach Hunt made five changes to the team compared to Tuesday’s starting eleven. In particular, we will see Mulomowandau Mathoho play again after missing the team’s last two matches due to suspension.
Captain Itumeleng Khune, who has played at the venue of this afternoon’s game, Limbe Omnisports Stadium for Bafana Bafana, will be at Amakhosi’s goal.
Siyabonga Ngezana, Mathoho, Ramahlwe Mphahlele and Daniel Cardoso will be on defense. Mathoho replaces Philani Zulu in Amakhosi’s back four.
A completely different midfield from Njabulo Blom, Anthony Akumu Agay, Siphelele Ntshangase and Bernard Parker will start the game. Nkosingiphile Ngcobo, Kgotso Moleko, Willard Katsande and Lebogang Manyama, who started the last match in midfield, are on the bench.
The attacking duo of Khama Billiat and Leonardo Castro remains unchanged.
The game’s refereeing team is from West Africa and is led by Mihindou Mbina Gauthier in the middle of the park. He will be assisted by Urbain Ndong and Felix Aba’a Eyaga. The trio hails from Gabon. The fourth official is Germain Didier Simplice Ngulamba from the neighboring Central African Republic.
The first leg of the CAF Champions League preliminary round between PWD Bamenda and Kaizer Chiefs will begin at 3:00 PM (4:00 PM South African time) at Limbe Omnisports Stadium in Limbe, Cameroon. Like many leagues around the world at this time, spectators will not be allowed into the stadium. Kaizer Chiefs will provide a live broadcast of the match via the club’s YouTube channel and the link will be available on our social media platforms. There will be game updates on Twitter @KaizerChiefs.
