KAIZER Chiefs seem to be struggling to get their winning momentum back!
Chiefs have failed to win a match from their last five encounters in all competitions.
Amakhosi have collected three points from possible twelve points.
Chiefs drew 1-all with SuperSport United in a league match played at FNB Stadium.
Under-fire coach Steve Komphela made three changes from his starting eleven that lost to Mamelodi Sundowns 2-1 on Saturday.
Defender Daniel Cardoso was dropped to the bench while Sibusiso Khumalo missed the clash due to injury. George Lebese made his return to Chiefs’ squad after missing three games; Baroka FC, Free State Stars and Mamelodi Sundowns.
All eyes were on the visiting side considering that United thrashed Orlando Pirates 6-1 in a league match and they didn’t disappoint as they broke the ice through Thabo Mnyamane’s tapped in goal after Jeremy Brockie assisted with a great cross from the right side.
However, Amakhosi launched a counter attack from the centre line and immediately leveled the score courtesy of Lebese’s goal.
Chiefs could have gone to the break with a 3-1 lead but their former goalkeeper Reyaad Pieterse kept his side into the game when he produced great saves.
The second half couldn’t live up to its expectations, as both teams failed to create goal scoring chances.
Stuart Baxter revisited FNB stadium for the first time since he left the Glamour Boys two seasons ago.
Amakhosi are on position 6th on the log with 16 points while Matsatsantsa a Pitori have 17 points and seats on 3rd place.
Baxter’s charges play Pirates on Saturday at Mbombela Stadium in the semifinals of the Telkom knockout (6pm).
