Kaizer Chiefs

DWLDLL

After suffering a loss in their previous game against Chippa United in Premier Division competition, Kaizer Chiefs and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In that game, Kaizer Chiefs managed 58% possession and 20 shots at goal with 3 on target. At the other end, Chippa United had 11 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target.

For 5 of the prior 6 clashes involving Kaizer Chiefs, a notably low volume of goals have been struck between them and their opponents. The overall average goals scored per game within that spell works out to a paltry 1.5, with the number of goals averaged by Amakhosi equalling 0.5. That kind of trend might not follow through here, of course.
