WHAT HAPPENED?

WHAT NABI SAID

It is obvious from the inconsistencies that Chiefs can't win the Premier Soccer League, which is hotly contested by Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates.They also failed in their bid to push for the Carling Knockout, where they crashed out in the quarter-finals after a heavy 4-0 loss against the Brazilians.The Nedbank Cup is a massive opportunity for the Soweto giants to end their decade-long trophy drought, explaining why Nabi needs Cele and Miguel.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

This is the fourth meeting for the two teams this season across all competitions.Amakhosi have lost all the initial three, and this weekend's game is a chance for the Tunisian to avenge the defeats.
