Kaizer Chiefs will be back in action this evening when they face fellow Soweto outfit Swallows FC in the DStv Premiership.
Kaizer Chiefs head into tonight’s clash on a dreadful four-game winless run while the newly promoted Swallows are yet to taste defeat in the DStv Premiership.
The last time Swallows FC and Kaizer Chiefs met was all the way back in 2015 with the Amakhosi cruising to a 3 – 0 victory in Dobsonville courtesy of goals by Bernard Parker, George Lebese and a Larry Cohen own goal.
Tonight’s clash marks a new chapter in their Soweto rivalry and this website will be providing live coverage from the game. Follow all of the action below.

Truter wary of wounded Amakhosi
Kaizer Chiefs have started the 2020/2021 DStv Premiership campaign in the worst possible manner however Swallows FC head coach Brandon Truter is wary of the wounded Amakhosi.
“The Dobsonville pitch also, not the easiest pitches when it is wet and it is raining, so the players will definitely feel it.” – Truter said as quoted by Sowetan.
“But yes, it is our home game and of course we want to get the maximum points on offer, so that is what we will be going for.
“Kaizer Chiefs are definitely on the up, they are getting better, they want to be at that level and they scored two goals over the weekend. So there is definitely a threat. But it is how we manage the game, that will be the key.”
