This is an important phase for Kaizer Chiefs - Riekerink

Cape Town City coach Jan Olde Riekerink says while they have to beat Kaizer Chiefs in Wednesday's Premier Soccer League clash, their opponents are also going through a spell in which they can't afford to lose, in order to maintain their top-eight ambitions.

Amakhosi welcome Cape Town City at FNB Stadium as they seek to extend a run of eight games without tasting defeat shared between the PSL and the Caf Champions League.

Currently placed ninth on the standings, Amakhosi face the Citizens who are two rungs above them and five points separate the two sides.
