Kruger United coach Abram Mongoya expressed that facing Kaizer Chiefs in their first 2026/27 Betway Premiership game will be a ‘warm welcome’ into life in South Africa’s top flight.
Mongoya and his charges earned promotion to the Betway Premiership after topping the Motsepe Foundation Championship last season and will now face Amakhosi at the Mbombela Stadium on Saturday.
Reflecting on the match, Mongoya mentioned that Kruger intend on giving Chiefs a run for their money with the Soweto giants hoping to be competitive at the top end of the table.
“What a way to start for Kruger United,” Mongoya said at the Betway Premiership launch, as per the Citizen.
“It is a nice warm welcome. We have built a decent squad and it is going to be a very good game.
“I can promise we will give our best and make sure we give Chiefs a very good run (for their money).”
