Hard-tackling Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Siphesihle Ndlovu will sit out their upcoming Betway Premiership clash against Sekhukhune United through suspension.
Ndlovu accumulated his fourth yellow booking of the campaign in their intense 1-1 league stalemate against Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus Versfeld on Wednesday evening.

It was a physical clash which also saw Masandawana midfield maestro Jayden Adams receiving his marching orders after a second bookable offence for his tackle on Mduduzi Shabalala.
The match proved to be a physical affair, with both sides suffering injuries to key players as a result of the physicality. In fact, Shabalala suffered a broken arm which pretty much rules him out for the rest of the season with three matches left.
There was also so much debate regarding Ndlovu’s tackle on Keanu Cupido with many believing he ‘got away with murder’, even though he appeared to be the biggest transgressor on the night.
The former Orlando Pirates and SuperSport United robust midfielder was booked just 13 minutes into the clash in Tshwane though he was lucky to finish the game after committing more fouls later on in the game.
Ndlovu picked up his first yellow of the season in the 1-0 win over Polokwane City, scoring the only goal in that match back in August 2025.
He then picked up his second yellow in the 1-1 draw against Marumo Gallants in September last year, which was then followed by his third booking in the 1-0 win over Durban City in March this year.
He will thus be serving a one-match ban against Babina Noko who are hot on the heels of Amakhosi in fourth position.
