Mamelodi Sundowns are in high spirits heading into this fixture, as they've only lost two matches all season in the Premier Soccer League. The only major disappointment for the Brazilians so far this season is losing to Magesi FC in the Carling Knockout Final last year.

Masadanwana are working on extending their lead on the PSL table as they are being followed closely by Orlando Pirates, who have four outstanding matches, and a win against Chiefs is all they need to do that.

Kaizer Chiefs, on the other hand, have been hot and cold this season, they struggle for consistency majorly in the Betway Premiership, but the addition of new players in the January transfer window has helped them a little.

A win for Nasreddine Nabi's side against the Pretoria giants could see them move back to the top five on the log.
