Chiefs have lost pretty much all of the early-season momentum they gained under new head coach Nasreddine Nabi.

Amakhosi need to find their shooting boots and their defensive steel.Kaizer Chiefs will be desperate for some kind of New Year cheer as they host Chippa United tomorrow at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in their final Betway Premiership game of 2024.Amakhosi have lost pretty much all of the early-season momentum they gained under new head coach Nasreddine Nabi.

One of Chiefs’ main problems is in front of goal, where neither Ashley Du Preez nor Ranga Chivaviro have convinced as the main striker.Chivaviro has just three league goals this season, including a last-gasp equaliser in Chiefs’ last Premiership match against TS Galaxy. Du Preez, meanwhile, has two top flight goals to his name in the current campaign.

“It’s about being calm. Sometimes as a striker … you make up your mind in front of the box and you do what your mind tells you to do,” said Du Preez in a recent interview with iDiski Times, when asked about how he could improve his goalscoring.Amakhosi also have their issues at the back, where they have yet to keep a clean sheet in the Betway Premiership this season.

Rushwin Dortley has impressed since joining this season from Cape Town Spurs, also cementing his place as a starting centre back for Bafana Bafana. Angolan central defender Inacio Miguel has also done well at times, though he has also already served two suspensions, after accumulating four red cards, and after being sent off against Mamelodi Sundowns.At least Nabi seems to be sure of his team’s best central defensive partnership. He does not seem certain at all of his best goalkeeper. Chiefs signed Rwandan international Fiacre Ntwari at the start of the season and he started Chiefs first five league games of the season.
