Stuart Baxter sees Kaizer Chiefs as the only team that can derail Mamelodi Sundowns from winning their fifth consecutive Premiership title this season.
Sundowns lead third-placed Chiefs by 19 points, but the Amakhosi have four games in hand with two matches they failed to play in December still not decided yet.
“So that could be a 12 points swing and looking at that, we are not completely out of the picture, but if you are betting, I don’t think you can put your money on anybody catching Sundowns. Chiefs will face rivals Orlando Pirates in the Soweto derby at Orlando Stadium tomorrow at 3.30pm, and the 68-year-old feels a win will go a long way to cementing a place in the top two. “If we can take three points off this game it will cement our intentions and I think that’s important,” he said.
