What Happened
Stellenbosch FC is set to face Kaizer Chiefs in a crucial Betway Premiership encounter on Tuesday. This match marks the second meeting between the two teams within a month, following Stellenbosch’s previous victory over Chiefs in the Nedbank Cup on February 4.

With the Nedbank Cup behind them, the team aims to concentrate on their league performance. Hunt acknowledged the challenges of playing away but expressed confidence in his squad’s ability to perform well despite fitness concerns and suspensions affecting player availability.
What’s Next
As the Betway Premiership progresses, both teams are looking to solidify their standings. Stellenbosch is determined to build on their recent success against Chiefs, while Kaizer Chiefs will be eager to bounce back after their cup exit. The outcome of this match could have implications for both teams’ league positions as they strive for better results in the remaining fixtures.
