CONSIDERING their poor run in the Premiership, Stellenbosch FC will need their most impactful players to be at the top of their game against Kaizer Chiefs on Sunday in Cape Town.

- HERMAN GIBBS

This Carling Knockout round of 16 clash has the potential to turn their fortunes around and redefine their season. With both teams vying for a spot in the next stage of the tournament, Stellenbosch knows that an extraordinary performance will be vital for their success.

In the past, encounters against Chiefs have presented a daunting challenge, and the Mother City fans inspire them to show off their flair and tactical prowess.

Stellenbosch FC needs stronger performances from Devin Titus, Andre de Jong, Ibraheem Jabaar, Sanele Barns, and Sage Stephens to reach the quarterfinals. These players could play a pivotal role in determining the match's outcome.

Devin Titus

Titus, a pivotal figure in Stellenbosch's midfield, must orchestrate play effectively, connecting defence and attack while stifling Chiefs' creativity. He is known for his speed and agility on the field, and he will need to harness those attributes to create scoring opportunities for the team.
