Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze has given an injury update ahead of his side’s Soweto Derby at a sold-out FNB Stadium on Saturday.
The Chiefs coaches enter the game under pressure after losing three of their last four games across all competitions – a run that saw them knocked out of the Nedbank Cup and CAF Confederations Cup, while also suffering a blow to their league chances.
Amakhosi currently sit eight points behind their Soweto rivals and leaders Mamelodi Sundowns, needing a win on Saturday to keep their title hopes alive.
Miguel confirmed that Inacio Miguel has returned to training but will still be assessed, while Sibongesini Mthethwa should be available but Etiosa Ighodaro remains sidelined.
“It is true that Miguel has missed a couple of games following his injury in the Nedbank Cup game against Stellenbosch, he’s had two lighter training sessions with the group and he will be assessed today to see if he’s able to feature,”
“Ox has been training with the team for the last five sessions, he can help but he’s not 100% fit. Ighoadora is definitely out, he hasn’t joined the group yet.
“Thabo Cele is back from his injury, he can help… George Matlou is out.”
