The coach has kept almost the same eleven who started in the 2-0 victory against Pirates at the FNB Stadium on the 28th October.

Defender Fabian McCarthy who picked up an automatic suspension for his third yellow card of the season which he picked up against Pirates last week misses Sunday’s game; Fabian has been replaced by Derrick Spencer who last started for Chiefs in the 0-0 draw against Classic on the 26th October.

Ernst Middendorp has said he is confident of a good performance from his team this afternoon and is equally confident that Chiefs will march on to the semi finals.
