The South African Premier Soccer League is back in action this week as Kaizer Chiefs take on Chippa United in an important match at the FNB Stadium on Sunday. Both teams have struggled this season and will want to win this game.

Chippa United currently find themselves in 15th place in the league table and will have to work hard to avoid relegation this season. The away side held Golden Arrows to a 0-0 stalemate last week and will look for a similar result in this fixture.

Kaizer Chiefs, on the other hand, have endured an underwhelming campaign so far and are in eighth place in the South African Premier Division at the moment. The Chiefs edged Mamelodi Sundowns to an important 2-1 victory in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this match.


Kaizer Chiefs vs Chippa United Head-to-Head

Kaizer Chiefs have a good record against Chippa United and have won 10 games out of a total of 17 matches played between the two teams. Chippa United have managed only five victories against Kaizer Chiefs and will need to improve their record in this fixture.

The previous meeting between the two teams took place in October last year and ended in a narrow 1-0 victory for Kaizer Chiefs. Chippa United missed several chances on the day and will need to be more clinical this week.
