2026\/27 Carling Knockout<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Quarterfinals<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Sunday 8 November features two quarterfinal clashes in the Carling Knockout<\/a>, headlined by traditional heavyweights Kaizer Chiefs and AmaZulu FC.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chiefs will be in action in the first match, hosting Siwelele FC at the Peter Mokaba Stadium (15:00) in Polokwane, as they look to bounce back from losing 1-2 to arch rivals Orlando Pirates in the Betway Premiership last weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Amakhosi crushed TS Galaxy in the first round of the CKO, and coach Fernando Da Cruz will be keen to see his side recreate that kind of performance \u2013 which featured a hat-trick from Wandile Duba.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOur young players must learn to have consistency, but it takes time and is a process,\u201d said the French tactician. \u201cWe need to go step by step. We are not at this step at the moment, but we will work and will reach this step.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Siwelele earned their quarterfinal berth by overcoming Polokwane City via penalties in the previous round, though they suffered a 2-3 league defeat at the hands of struggling Marumo Gallants in their latest outing.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Later on Sunday (18:00 CAT), Stellenbosch will welcome AmaZulu to the Danie Craven Stadium for the last quarterfinal.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Usuthu come into the match boasting a six-match winning run across all competitions, with their most recent outing a 1-0 home win over local rivals Golden Arrows last weekend \u2013 in which Thandolwenkosi Ngwenya hit his 11th goal in as many matches this season.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

AmaZulu\u2019s great form has sparked talk of a title tilt in the Betway Premiership, as well as in this Carling Knockout, but head coach Arthur Zwane is more concerned with taking it one step at a time .<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIn short, I would say we have soldiers; we have players that can take the pain,\u201d said Zwane, who went on to add: \u201cSometimes we play a scrappy game, but as long as we keep on winning, it\u2019s okay because we are a team that\u2019s growing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Stellenbosch, led by the wily coach Gavin Hunt, will represent a challenging obstacle for AmaZulu. The Cape side earned their quarterfinal berth in the CKO by downing Durban City 2-0 away last midweek, but they followed that up with a surprise 0-2 home loss at the hands of Chippa United on the weekend \u2013 ending a five-match unbeaten run across all competitions.<\/span><\/p>\n
