The South African Premier Soccer League is back in action with another exciting fixture this week as Kaizer Chiefs lock horns with SuperSport United at the Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium on Tuesday. Kaizer Chiefs have endured a miserable season so far and need to take it up a notch in this fixture.

SuperSport United have been fairly inconsistent this season and are currently in sixth place in the South African Premier Division. The home side edged Maritzburg United to a 2-1 victory last weekend and needs to be at its best in this game.

Kaizer Chiefs are currently in a dismal 12th place in the South African Premier Soccer League and need to turn their season around before the end of the year. The Chiefs were held to a 2-2 draw by Black Leopards in their previous game and cannot afford to drop points in this fixture.


SuperSport United vs Kaizer Chiefs Head-to-Head

SuperSport United have a good record against Kaizer Cheifs and have won 12 games out of a total of 31 matches played between the two teams in the recent past. Kaizer Chiefs have managed 10 victories against SuperSport United and will want to work towards restoring parity between the two teams this week.

The previous meeting between the two South African giants took place in January this year and ended in a hard-fought 2-1 victory for SuperSport United. Kaizer Chiefs have not been at their best and need to step up to the plate on Tuesday.
