The Premier Soccer League have come to Kaizer Chiefs’ aid by rescheduling one of their upcoming Absa Premiership fixtures.
Chiefs are scheduled to take on Bidvest Wits at the Bidvest Stadium this evening, before travelling to Zambia to face Zesco United in the CAF Confederation Cup.
Amakhosi are two steps away from making history by qualifying for the Confed Cup group stage, with Los Zegalacticos standing in their way.
The fixture in Ndola is set to take place at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium on Sunday afternoon, with The Glamour Boys likely to travel back to Johannesburg on Monday.
They were then scheduled to visit AmaZulu at the King Zwelithini Stadium for their league fixture next week Tuesday, leaving them with no time to prepare.
However, the PSL have provided some relief by shifting the fixture by 24 hours, allowing Chiefs an extra day to train and travel to Durban.
Ernst Middendorp’s charges will then host Zesco in the return leg of their continental tie next Friday, at a venue and time yet to be confirmed by the club.
