SuperSport United are aiming for a victory

The match between SuperSport and Chiefs is confirmed via the tweet below:

Speaking to Briefly News, Arubi said the fifth-placed side are pushing for victory as they push for a place in the PSL top-three.

Arubi said:

"It is a big game because we are both coming from losses, and we are both wounded, but the team that puts in more effort is the one that will win the game. We still have a chance to finish second or at least third, putting us into a Caf competition next season, and that is what we are aiming for. Beating Chiefs helps us achieve that goal."

Chiefs coach Cavin Johnson still hopes to earn a CAF spot, but his side will need to drastically change their form after last scoring a goal on Saturday, 9 March.
