Kaizer Chiefs have given injury-update ahead of their clash against former coach Gavin Hunt and his SuperSport United.
Amakhosi currently sit in seventh place, with eight points from six games, while Matsatsantsa have 10 points from five appearances.
For Chiefs to not fall off the pace early in the campaign, they will need to beat SSU on Wednesday, with Ntseki revealing that Mduduzi Mdantsane back in contention.
“We have Mdu Mdantsane, who was not in the team last week, back with the team this week. Last week, we saw [Edmilson] Dove in the team for the first time after a very long layoff,” Ntseki told Chiefs’ media team.
“All the guys coming back from injuries are in a very good space. They are just working very hard to avail themselves for selection. I hope in the next few weeks we will have all the players available for selection.
“I must say, the medical team and the attitude of the players has been very good. With some injuries that were set to be longer in terms of recovery, you see them recovering as quickly as possible because of how the players conduct themselves and the good work the medical team is putting into those players.”
Ntseki also insisted that he has selected a “very strong” group to face SuperSport on Wednesday evening.
“We are taking a very strong team to SuperSport. The guys that are left behind are also very good players with good qualities. The attitude is very good in the squad,” he added.
“Those who have been left behind will also raise their hand to be selected for the game against Sundowns.
“We have done what has to be done in terms of the regeneration and the freshness of the players, and the tactical readiness to go and grind a result against SuperSport.”
