Kaizer Chiefs have kicked off the 2025/2026 Betway Premiership season in style, winning all three of their opening matches:
- 2-0 over Stellenbosch FC
- 1-0 over Polokwane City
- 1-0 over Richards Bay FC.
Former Amakhosi defender Isaac Mabotsa thinks this could be the start of something special for the Soweto giants.
KAIZER CHIEFS READY TO CHASE THE BETWAY PREMIERSHIP TITLE
Early results for Kaizer Chiefs
“The team is improving; for me, it’s still early days, but it’s a good start,” Mabotsa told Kick Off. Even though Kaizer Chiefs aren’t yet playing the style they aspire to, the results are piling up, and that’s what builds confidence. “Things are moving in the right direction,” he added.
Talent and squad depth
Mabotsa added to say Kaizer Chiefs have assembled an improved squad, even though some new signings have yet to feature.
“I’m pleased with the squad. So far, so good. You can see how happy the supporters are,” he said.
“With young talent blending with experienced heads, Kaizer Chiefs look like a side ready to mount a serious title challenge.
Amakhosi for the league title
“As with any major club, Chiefs target the league title every season,” Mabotsa explained. “We have done our building, and now it’s time to deliver.”
“Let’s assess them after 10 games. But for now, fans have plenty to cheer about.
Coming up next for Amakhosi is a visit from the wounded champions Mamelodi Sundowns. The game will be on Wednesday night at 19:30 from the FNB Stadium.
