Kaizer Chiefs hit by injury blow to Petersen and Duba
Injuries to goalkeeper Brandon Petersen and attacker Wandile Duba force Kaizer Chiefs into lineup changes ahead of Sunday's clash against Golden Arrows.
Kaizer Chiefs face a significant setback with injuries to captain Brandon Petersen and attacker Wandile Duba, both sidelined for several weeks. Petersen, who has been in top form this season, suffered a knee injury during training, while Duba, who has scored three goals in five league appearances, is out with a hip and groin problem.
The injuries have left Chiefs in a tricky position, with coach Fernando da Cruz forced to either drop Petersen and give new goalkeeper Renaldo Leaner a chance, or find a replacement for Duba. Young forward Faiz Abrahams, known for his promising performances on the bench, is poised to start against Arrows, marking his first start for the club.
