This will be the first Macufe Cup without Bloemfontein Celtic who sold their PSL status to Royal AM at the start of last season.

Ironically, Max Tshabalala sold the status to Royal AM boss Shauwn Mkhize, and the Free State government decided to invite her and the team this time around.

Both teams are expected to give a number of their fringe players a chance to play on the day, especially Chiefs who have an important MTN8 semi-final next week.

Coach Arthur Zwane has already spoken about the importance of this game in getting all his players to the required level of match fitness.

What’s interesting is that Chiefs are yet to beat Royal AM in any of their last three matches – the Soweto giants lost all three matches to Royal AM.
