Kaizer Chiefs are out looking for redemption as they host TS Galaxy in the DStv Premiership at Peter Mokaba Stadium on Tuesday night.
Chiefs succumbed to their biggest defeat in the previous match as they were walloped 5-1 by seven-time league champions, Mamelodi Sundowns at FNB Stadium on Thursday night.
The Soweto giants will now look to redeem their status and collect the full three points in Limpopo but it will not be easy against the Rockets. Coach Cavin Johnson will have a crippled team as midfielder Goodman Msimango was red-carded against Masandawana.

Kaizer Chiefs vs TS Galaxy Match Details:
- Date: May 07, 2024
- Time: 7:30 PM SAST
- Venue: Peter Mokaba Stadium, Polokwane
Chiefs: Sitting at number eight on the log table with 33 points, Chiefs still have hopes of having the best finish. Their CAF Champions League qualification hopes have been dashed and will only look to remain in the top eight. At the same time, Johnson is aware that a defeat will condemn the Soweto giants to the relegation zone.
TS Galaxy: The Mbombela-based side is blowing hot and cold but will be motivated to secure a win against Chiefs. Sead Ramovic is set to motivate his men to return to winning ways and fight for a top-five finish on the standings. Galaxy have 38 points from 25 games and a win will see them going up to the fourth spot above Babina Noko.
Kaizer Chiefs vs TS Galaxy Key Battles To Watch:
Bruce Bvuma vs Bernard Parker: The young Bafana Bafana keeper will be the man to watch as they look to keep a clean sheet. Conceding five against Sundowns means it was a bad day in the office for the gloveman. In this clash, he will face off against Parker who has a dangerous left foot. A former Chiefs skipper, Parker will know the weaknesses of his ex-teammates.
Ashley du Preez vs Mpho Mvelase: Du Preez is yet to reach his best since making his switch to Naturena. Known for his speed and ability to finish their chances, he will be key for them as they want redemption. For the Rockets, Ramovic will pin his hopes on Mvelase to trouble the leaky Chiefs defence. He can read the game and exploit the spaces between the back four.
Chiefs vs TS Galaxy Head to Head:
Amakhosi are heading to Polokwane to turn the corner as they have one win, and five draws while Galaxy have registered three wins out of their nine meetings.
Amakhosi vs TS Galaxy Coaches:
Cavin Johnson: Johnson has come under criticism from many Chiefs fans and some feel he didn’t stabilise the sinking ship. The Soweto giants are struggling to remain consistent and lack the confidence upfront but it seems he is clueless on how to solve the issues.
Sead Ramovic: The Bosnian mentor is tasked with leading the club to the top three. However, he is also one of the coaches who are not consistent when it comes to results. Ramovic is yet to win a trophy in the South African top-flight and he will hope for one in the upcoming seasons.

Chiefs vs TS Galaxy What The Teams Said:
Cavin Johnson: “Their (Sundowns) first goal was a foul for us, if you look at it. There’s a foul on the right-hand side [Lorch on Dithlokwe] and the referee points the other way. From that moment they go to the other side and they score.

“That really breaks your players too sometimes because that’s the achilles heel that it takes out of us because we’re one man down and the foul actually belongs to Kaizer Chiefs.
“But in saying that, we had to defend better in the second half, which we didn’t do. But my main bone of contention is the first goal scored against us.
“We have to go back to the drawing board and we have to pull up our socks because the Chiefs you saw in the last 15 minutes is not the Chiefs I know or coach. We’re disappointed and we’re going to fix it.”
Chiefs vs TS Galaxy Fan Sentiments:
Despite the 5-1 drubbing by Sundowns last week, Amakhosi fans are still faithful and hope for a change of fortunes. They are expected to come out in numbers in Polokwane.
Chiefs vs TS Galaxy Prediction:
Because of the heavy defeat, Chiefs might find it difficult to bounce back but with the support in Limpopo, they can win this one.
Chiefs vs TS Galaxy What’s Next:
Chiefs will travel to Durban for their date against AmaZulu slated for Sunday afternoon. Meanwhile, Galaxy will travel to Cape Town City on the same day at the iconic Cape Town Stadium.
