Coach Giovanni Solinas has decided to start tonight’s game against Bidvest Wits with the same eleven as performed so well against Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday afternoon.

Amakhosi and the Brazilians played to a one-all draw in the opening fixture of the 2018/2019 Absa Premiership. Ramahlwe Mphahlele netted for the Glamour Boys.

Chiefs and Wits played last season twice to a one-all draw.

George Maluleka is still out with an ankle injury, while Teenage Hadebe is nursing a small issue with his knee.

Assistant-coach Paul Johnston will sit on the bench for Bidvest Wits, as head coach Gavin Hunt is still sitting out a suspension.

Amakhosi host the Clever Boys in an Absa Premiership fixture at FNB Stadium on Tuesday night, 7 August 2018 (kick-off is at 19:30).
