DStv Premiership
Teams: Cape Town City v Kaizer Chiefs
Date: 30 March 2024

Chiefs had an extended break after they were not involved in the Nedbank Cup last 16 encounters a week before the FIFA break.
Amakhosi were last in action in early March after a 3-2 defeat to Orlando Pirates in the Soweto derby, after they squandered a lead twice through a brace by Ashley Du Preez.
The Glamour Boys will be without Edson Castillo and Yusuf Maart due to suspensions.
The Soweto giants dropped to seventh on the table with 29 points.City, meanwhile, are also going through a rough patch, as they are winless in their last five matches in all competitions after a 2-0 loss to Royal AM a week before the international break.
The Citizens, however, are still in and around the continental places in fifth spot with 31 points, just two points behind second-placed Orlando Pirates.
Chiefs will also be looking to turn the tables against Eric Tinkler's charges after losing the first round clash 1-0 from a goal by Khanyisa Mayo.
