Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Willard Katsande is looking forward to his side’s Absa Premiership clash with Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday.

The 30-year-old has been in good form this season, having scored one goal from 11 appearances in all competitions.

The former Ajax Cape Town midfielder insists his side has to be focused for their meeting with the defending Absa Premiership champions.

‘We are definitely going to give them the respect they deserve,’ Katsande said.

‘After all, they are the defending PSL and African champs. They also would want to climb the ladder to make up for lost time and games played.

‘It’s going to be a good battle and we as Chiefs players are looking forward to making our fans happy.’

The match at Loftus Versfeld Stadium kicks off at 15:30.
