Kaizer Chiefs will be aiming to bounce back from a heavy defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns as they prepare to host TS Galaxy in a highly-anticipated clash in the DStv Premiership.

The match is set to take place on Tuesday evening at the Peter Mokaba Stadium, with both teams eager to secure a crucial victory.

In their previous encounter, Chiefs suffered a resounding 5-1 loss to Sundowns after being reduced to ten men early on following the red card of Given Msimango.

The defeat was a tough blow for Kaizer Chiefs, with Tashreeq Matthews, Matias Esquivel, Lucas Ribeiro Costa, and Thembinkosi Lorch all finding the back of the net for the Brazilians.

Despite the setback, Chiefs are determined to put up a strong performance and secure the much-needed three points to stay competitive in the league.

On the other hand, TS Galaxy will be looking to bounce back themselves after two consecutive games without scoring, including a goalless draw against Sekhukhune United in their latest outing.

The Rockets currently occupy the fifth spot on the table and will be aiming to climb higher with a positive result against the solid Kaizer Chiefs side.

Key players to watch out for in the match include Orebotse Mongae, who will be missing the clash due to suspension, and Brandon Petersen, whose own goal decided the first round encounter earlier in the season in favor of Galaxy.

With both teams eager for a win, the matchup promises to be an exciting and closely contested affair at the Peter Mokaba Stadium.
