Kaizer Chiefs face an uphill battle to qualify for next season’s MTN8. Meanwhile, they have a huge fixture on the horizon and a new transfer target.
Kaizer Chiefs’ MTN8 destiny is out of their hands
Another trophyless season beckons, and the club even faces an uphill battle to qualify for next season’s MTN8. Chippa and Golden Arrows both pose a serious threat to their ambitions of a top-eight finish; Amakhosi have 30 points after 24 games. The Chilli Boys are just a point adrift and have two gams in hand, while Arrows are only two points behind Chiefs and they have three games in hand on the Glamour Boys. Chiefs can only pick up a maximum of 18 points in the remainder of the campaign. However, if we go by their average points per game (PPG tally) of 1.25 so far, they’ll only get 7.5 more points this season. Let’s be generous and call it 8. We believe that won’t be enough to secure a place in next season’s MTN8.
