After their perfect start to the PSL season, the Amakhosi are full of confidence, but they face a Richards Bay side desperate to turn their season around.

Form Guide
Kaizer Chiefs has opened their campaign with two impressive wins. They kicked off with a 2-0 victory over Stellenbosch FC and followed it up with a 1-0 win against Polokwane City. With these back-to-back triumphs, they are one of only four teams with a perfect record.
A win against Richards Bay would not only maintain their 100% record but also put them five points ahead of reigning champions Mamelodi Sundowns and nine points ahead of rivals Orlando Pirates, who both play on Wednesday.
In stark contrast, Richards Bay has had a difficult start. They are coming into this match on the back of three consecutive losses across all competitions. Their season began with a heavy 4-0 defeat to Sundowns in the MTN8 quarter-final, followed by league losses to Marumo Gallants (2-1) and Golden Arrows (1-0). They’ll be looking to finally get their season going at the FNB Stadium.
History Books
Richards Bay can take confidence from their last meeting with Kaizer Chiefs, where they pulled off a surprising 2-0 victory in March. That result helped them finish the season in eighth place, just one point ahead of the Glamour Boys.
Overall, the history between these two teams is evenly matched. Kaizer Chiefs holds a slight edge with four wins to Richards Bay’s three. In their last home fixture against Richards Bay in November, Chiefs secured a 2-1 victory.
