Kaizer Chiefs have announced that the club moved next month’s clash against Highlands Park from the FNB Stadium to the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
The Amakhosi and the Lions of the North were originally scheduled for 2 March at the FNB Stadium, but announced that the fixture will now take place at their second home in Durban.
Venue Change
Please note that we will now play Highlands Park at Moses Mabhida Stadium and no longer at FNB Stadium.
The match will be played on Saturday 02 March 2019. Kick off is at 18h00.#AbsaPrem #HailTheChief #Amakhosi4Life pic.twitter.com/j5E0TL9CRm

The Glamour Boys did not give any reasoning behind the switch, but it is thought the club is looking for a change of scenery to combat their poor record in Soweto this season.
Chiefs are yet to win a game at the 2010 Fifa World Cup final venue, winning just three of their 14 games there all season.
Chiefs will be looking for a strong finish to the season as they look to battle in the Nedbank Cup, with a round of 16 clash against the Magic FC on Sunday as they aim to climb the league table and secure a top three finish.
