Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Kaizer Chiefs’ interim coach Cavin Johnson has shown faith in veteran goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune, creative midfielder Nkosingiphile Ngcobo and striker Ranga Chavaviro for the Soweto derby against Orlando Pirates.<\/p>\n

Khune, Ngcobo and Chavaviro saw little action under former coach Molefi Ntseki but Johnson has shown faith in them as they have been named in the starting line-up for the second successive match.<\/p>\n

Ngcobo and Khune were not at their best in their midweek DStv Premiership win over Cape Town Spurs but Chavaviro found the back of the net as Amakhosi pulled off a morale-boosting 3-2 victory.<\/p>\n

Khune will play in front of Thatayaone Dithlokwe, Given Msimango, and Zitha Kwinika and Yusuf Maart, Sibongiseni Mthethwa and Edson Castillo in the heart of the midfield.<\/p>\n

To create chances, Johnson has put his faith in the likes of Ngcobo, Keagan Dolly and Chavaviro.<\/p>\n

Pirates coach Jose Riveiro has stuck with a largely consistent line-up that includes goalkeeper Melusi Buthelezi and the likes of Tapelo Xoki, Thabiso Monyane and Olisa Ndah at the back.<\/p>\n

In the heart of the midfield, Riveiro has shown faith in Miguel Timm and Thabang Monare with Patrick Maswanganyi, Thembinkosi Lorch, Kermit Erasmus and Evidence Makgopa on the attack.<\/p>\n

Line-Ups<\/p>\n

Chiefs: Khune, Dithlokwe, Msimango, Kwinika, Maart, Castilo, Mthethwa, Ngcobo, Dolly, Chivaviro<\/p>\n

Subs: Bvuma, Frosler, Njabulo Ngcobo, Zwane, Matlou, Mmodi, Saile, Shabalala<\/p>\n

Pirates: Buthelezi, Xoki, Ndah, Monyane, Hotto, Monare, Timm, Maswanganyi, Lorch, Erasmus, Makgopa<\/p>\n

Subs: Ofori, Mofokeng, Shandu, Kimviudi, Ndlondlo, Saleng, Lepasa, Sibisi<\/p>\n
