Kaizer Chiefs will know that they can get themselves back into the title race reckoning if they can get a third DStv Premiership win in succession against AmaZulu at FNB Stadium on Wednesday evening (kickoff 5.30pm).

Amakhosi's 2-1 Soweto derby win at home against Orlando Pirates and 1-0 away result toughed out against Maritzburg United at tricky Harry Gwala Stadium on Sunday made for four victories from five league games and a mini-stabilisation from a rocky start to 2021-22.

"Trusting in the process" is the term coaches and players reference in modern football. Stuart Baxter's new-look Chiefs will know they will have to put in a shift again to beat an AmaZulu who, languishing in ninth after being runners-up in 2020-21, are as motivated for results to turn around coach Benni McCarthy's second-season syndrome.

“I think overall we defended well, we stuck to our game plan. I think we played better in the second half in terms of our pressing shape and putting pressure on them. And we got the goal with a set piece, which we've been working on for long now. To get the goal from something we've been working on shows we're improving as a team.

“But we take each game as it comes. Now we will debrief on the Maritzburg game and try to improve were we need to, and implement that against AmaZulu.
