KAIZER CHIEFS VS RED ARROWS: ALL THE PERMUTATIONS

Kaizer Chiefs head into this crucial encounter on the back foot as they lost 1-0 away to Red Arrows in the first leg last week.

Now, for Fernando da Cruz’s men need to win this match by a two-goal margin to advance to the group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup.

A 1-0 win for Chiefs would still be good enough for them to stay in the game but they would then have to battle it out on penalties.

What the Soweto giants should AVOID by all means to is to concede and end up winning 2-1 as that result would favour Red Arrows.

Should that happen, Red Arrows would advance on away-goal rule as the aggregate score would be 2-2.
