Kaizer Chiefs will face AS Simba at the Dobsonville Stadium on Sunday
afternoon in a finely balanced CAF Confederation Cup preliminary round tie.
The second-leg clash follows a goalless draw in the first leg last weekend,
setting the stage for a winner-takes-all encounter.
Match Details:
- Teams: Kaizer Chiefs vs AS Simba
- Competition: CAF Confederation Cup (Preliminary Round, 2nd Leg)
- Date: 26 October 2025
- Venue: Dobsonville Stadium
Match Preview
With the aggregate score at 0-0, the tie is perfectly poised. Chiefs will
look to leverage home advantage to secure a spot in the next round, though
their recent form adds an element of pressure. The Soweto giants come into
this match without a win in their last four domestic league games, following
a 0-0 draw with Siwelele FC midweek.
This will be the first time this continental campaign that Chiefs play a
home fixture at the Dobsonville Stadium. Their journey in the previous round
was also tense; they needed a penalty shootout to overcome Kapuscorb after a
1-0 victory in regulation time.
The starting line-up has been named, with Brandon Petersen in goal and an
attacking front line led by Ighodaro.
Confirmed Line-Ups
Kaizer Chiefs Starting XI: Petersen, Cross, McCarthy, Kwinika, Solomons,
Mthethwa, Ngcobo, Shabalala, Vilakazi, Lilepo, Ighodaro
Subs: Bvuma, Frosler, Matlou, Cele, Maboe, Sirino, Mmodi, Velebayi, Du Preez
