Kaizer Chiefs need a replacement for Dove
Kaizer Chiefs prepare to face off against Golden Arrows and they need to find a replacement for suspended defender Edmilson Dove.
We’re hours away from watching Kaizer Chiefs again. Amakhosi take on Golden Arrows in Johannesburg.
DSTV PREMIERSHIP GIANTS KAIZER CHIEFS VS GOLDEN ARROWS
It was October when Amakhosi lost 2-1 to Golden Arrows at the Mpumalanga Stadium. Chiefs now have to chance to gain revenge at home tonight.
As far as form, both clubs are not doing so well. Cavin Johnson‘s team have not won a game in three fixtures: three 0-0 draws that included a loss on penalties against Milford FC.
On the opposite side, Abafana Bes’thende has endured 10 straight defeats.
Any team news?
EDMILSON DOVE TO MISS THE GAME
As witnessed in the 0-0 draw with Moroka Swallows last weekend, Chiefs left-back Edmilson Dove was given a red card.
The news was confirmed by Chiefs on Monday.
“In an important week where the big Soweto Derby against Orlando Pirates will take place on Saturday, Coach Cavin Johnson will need to ensure that the players remain focused on the match against Arrows as victory will be important for the momentum and build up to Saturday’s spectacle,” the club said.
“Chiefs will have to do without the reliable centre-back Edmilson Dove as the Mozambican sent off on Saturday night,” the note added.
Should Johnson pick Happy Mashiane or Sifiso Hanti at left-back? Let us know in the comments below.
