Kaizer Chiefs vs TS Galaxy prediction, preview, team news and more | South African Premier Soccer League 2020-21

The South African Premier Soccer League returns with another set of fixtures this week as Kaizer Chiefs take on TS Galaxy at the FNB Stadium on Wednesday. Both sides have endured mixed starts to their campaigns and will want to take it up a notch in this game.

TS Galaxy are currently in sixth place in the South African Premier Division and have regularly punched above their weight this year. The newly-promoted side has a point to prove this year and will not settle for anything less than a victory in this game.

Kaizer Chiefs have endured a difficult start to their season and will have to recover from devastating defeats to Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns to turn their season around. The Chiefs have conceded six goals in their last three games and have several issues to resolve going into this game.
