Here's how TS Galaxy and Kaizer Chiefs could potentially line up for this fixture:
TS Galaxy vs Kaizer Chiefs probable lineups
TS Galaxy
Goalkeeper: Vasilje Kolak.
Defenders: Mpho Mvelase, Pogiso Sanoka, McBeth Mahlangu, Solomon Letsoenyo.
Midfielders: Mlungisi Mbunjana, Bernard Parker, Sphiwe Mahlangu, Lehlogonolo Mojela, Kamogelo Sebelebele.
Strikers: Thamsanqa Gabuza.
Marks Munyai was injured in the first half of TS Galaxy's 0-0 draw with Chippa United, and will be unavailable for the hosts. Sead Ramovic is expected to adopt a 4-2-3-1 formation for this match, with Thamsanqa Gabuza being the sole striker.
Kaizer Chiefs
Goalkeeper: Brandon Petersen.
Defenders: Sfiso Hlanti, Thatayone Ditlhokwe, Spiwe Msimango, Reeve Frosler.
Midfielders: Yusuf Maart, Edson Castillo, Siyethemba Sithebe.
Strikers: Pule Mmodi, Ranga Chivaviro, Ashley Du Preez.
Unlike today's opponents, Kaizer Chiefs have all their players intact for this fixture. Molefi Ntseki used a 4-3-3 formation in AmaKhosi's win at Cape Town City last weekend, and we should expect a similar formation today.

TS Galaxy vs Kaizer Chiefs predictions
Prediction 1: Draw
It's important to point out that TS Galaxy and Kaizer Chiefs tend to draw when they meet. In fact, these teams have gone up against each other on eight occasions, and five of those ended in stalemates. Bearing in mind that the last three clashes between these teams ended in draws, we are fairly confident that the spoils will be shared at the end of this match.
Prediction 2: BTTS – No
For our second TS Galaxy vs Kaizer Chiefs prediction, let's explore the BTTS market. It's important to point out that previous clashes between these teams have mostly been one-sided when it comes to goals. TS Galaxy and Kaizer Chiefs met eight times in the past, and both teams scored in just one of those encounters. In like manner, one team blanked in five of Kaizer Chiefs' last seven, and in three of TS Galaxy's last four games. All things considered, we shouldn't expect goals at both ends.
Prediction 3: Under 2.5 goals
It's no surprise that we're taking the under option for this match, especially considering these teams usually don't score plenty of goals when they meet. Four of eight previous skirmishes between these teams ended goalless, while seven of those clashes went below the 1.5 goal mark. Taking into account that less than two goals were scored in five of Kaizer Chiefs' last seven matches, this will likely be a low-scoring affair.

TS Galaxy vs Kaizer Chiefs head to head
Despite being the favourites to win this match, Kaizer Chiefs don't particularly have a great track record against today's opponents. In eight previous encounters between the sides, AmaKhosi have just one win, with five draws and two losses. Interestingly, the spoils were shared the last three times these teams went toe-to-toe with each other.
