  • Kaizer Chiefs will take on Mamelodi Sundowns in an exciting league game on April 30
  • The struggling Amakhosi have eight more matches in this season's DStv Premiership
  • Cavin Johnson expressed disappointment after the most recent loss to Stellenbosch

Kaizer Chiefs have just eight league matches left in what has been a disappointing 2023/24 DStv Premiership season.

Amakhosi have continued to struggle in the South African top flight as they lost 1-0 to Stellenbosch at the FNB Stadium on Tuesday, April 2.

Cavin Johnson's side is sitting seventh on the table after managing 30 points from 22 matches.

Kaizer Chiefs' loss to Stellies made it their eighth defeat this season, as the chance of featuring in next season's MTN8 gets slimmer.

The Glamour Boys trail TS Galaxy, who have two games in hand, by three points and a win for Golden Arrows will also see them move ahead.

According to The South African, Polokwane City can also leapfrog Amakhosi if they win their game in hand.

Chiefs have eight league matches left, including the much-anticipated showdown against runaway league leaders, Mamelodi Sundowns.

Their match against TS Galaxy, which was rescheduled, is yet to have a confirmed date.

The fixture was rescheduled following Bafana Bafana's late return from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.

Cavin Johnson fumes after loss to Stellenbosch

Sports Brief earlier reported that interim coach, Cavin Johnson, expressed dissatisfaction with Kaizer Chiefs following their 1-0 loss to Stellenbosch FC in the DStv Premiership on April 2.

Devin Titus netted the solitary goal in first-half stoppage time, extending Stellies' unbeaten streak to 19 games, while the Glamour Boys continued their struggle for any consistent results.

As frustration builds among the fan base, Chiefs only have one win from eight matches across all competitions, diminishing their hopes of securing a CAF Champions League place.
