Khuzwayo's replacement confirmed

Cape Town - Kaizer Chiefs have been forced into a late change to their Carling Black Label Cup starting line-up with the withdrawal through injury of goalkeeper Brilliant Khuzwayo.

Khuzwayo was injured in training on Thursday, the same day Itumeleng Khune reached an agreement to re-join the Glamour Boys.

On Friday, the event's organisers confirmed that the injured Khuzwayo will be replaced by Reyaad Pieterse in the prestigious fixture against Orlando Pirates. 

The 23-year-old Pieterse made his debut in the 2013/14 season and has already played in one Soweto Derby, keeping a clean sheet when Kaizer Chiefs beat Orlando Pirates 1-0 in November 2013. 

Injuries have affected both teams this year, but each has been able to put out a strong starting XI as voted for by their passionate fans.

Saturday's match at the FNB Stadium kicks off at 15:30.

Carling Black Label Cup starting line-ups:

Kaizer Chiefs XI: Reyaad Pieterse, Kgotso Moleko, Siboniso Gaxa, Siyanda Xulu, Tsepo Masilela, Simphiwe Tshabalala, Reneilwe Letsholonyane, George Maluleka, George Lebese, Bernard Parker, David Zulu
