Kaizer Chiefs landed in Durban on Thursday afternoon as South Africa gets ready to witness the highly-anticipated Nedbank Cup final match between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates this coming Saturday! The rivalry between these two teams, known as the "Soweto Derby”, is often described as one of the fiercest in football

Just one week after their league match at FNB Stadium, the teams will clash again, this time for the coveted Nedbank Cup trophy, at Moses Mabhida Stadium. It is a significant match-up, since it marks Kaizer Chiefs' opportunity to break a streak of falling short in their last four cup finals. Since 2015, Amakhosi have faced disappointment in multiple finals, including the MTN8 and the Telkom Knockout in the 2015/16 season, the Nedbank Cup in 2018/19, as well as the CAF Champions League in 2021.

For Chiefs, this is a crucial match, and they will be eager to secure their 14^th Nedbank Cup victory after last missing out on lifting the trophy six years ago. Coach Nasreddine Nabi and his technical team will likely be feeling the pressure and excitement of the prospect of guiding the team to victory in their first season.

Fans on both sides will be buzzing with anticipation, and it’s bound to be an electrifying atmosphere in Durban, and around the country.

Tickets for the match are sold out! Fans with tickets are encouraged to arrive early at the stadium, with gates opening at 11:00. Those who don’t have tickets are requested to stay home and watch with family and friends.

There will also be two public viewing areas in Durban where supporters can gather and watch the big match.

Kick-off for the Nedbank Cup final between Amakhosi and the Sea Robbers kicks off at 15:30 at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday. The match will be live on SuperSport’s PSL Channel 202 and SABC 1.
