Kaizer Chiefs Fixtures 2026-27: Dates, Kick-off Times and Our Predictions

The next Kaizer Chiefs fixture is at home to Stellenbosch at FNB Stadium on Saturday 17 October 2026, 15:30 South African time. After that come the Soweto derby away to Orlando Pirates on Saturday 31 October at 15:30, and AmaZulu at FNB Stadium on Wednesday 4 November at 19:30. Chiefs are fourth in the Betway Premiership on 13 points from seven games and are still unbeaten. Our published picks on those three matches are Chiefs at 52 percent, Orlando Pirates at 58 percent and Chiefs at 44 percent, and every one of them is graded in public afterwards, win or lose.

Every confirmed Kaizer Chiefs fixture

All times below are South African Standard Time. The first three rows are carried by the SuperSport league list, the official Betway Premiership club page and our own fixture board, all checked on 1 October 2026. The last three rows are carried by the official league club page only, so we flag them as single source until a second list picks them up.

We do not invent a confidence figure for a fixture that is seven weeks away. The three rows marked for a later round will get a number when the clubs have played the matches in between, because a pick made on a stale league table is a pick made on the wrong information. The three we have published are reproduced here exactly as they appear on the Betway Premiership fixtures hub and on the match previews, so no two pages on this site carry different numbers for the same game.

The two hour clock problem, and why our times differ from one fixture list

This is the single most useful thing on this page. The widely used SuperSport league list publishes Betway Premiership kick-off times with no timezone label, and those bare numbers are two hours behind the times the league and the clubs publish. We checked both on 1 October 2026 for all three confirmed Chiefs fixtures and the offset is exactly two hours every time, which means the SuperSport clock is UTC and not South African time.

If you have turned up two hours early for a Chiefs match this season, that is almost certainly why. Take the SAST column. Broadcast schedules can still move a kick-off, so we re-check every fixture on this page on each update and date-stamp the strip at the top.

How hard is the run?

Points per game is the cleanest single measure of an opponent on a seven game sample, because it does not care whether a club has played seven matches or eight. Here is every confirmed Chiefs opponent, with the points per game each has taken in the Betway Premiership so far, computed from the league table as it stood on 1 October 2026.

The mean of the next three alone is 2.10 points per game, which is the hardest next three of any club in the division. Two of the three are the sides directly above Chiefs in the table and the third is the derby. The run then softens sharply: the mean of the last three on this list is 1.17. In other words the fourth place Chiefs hold at the start of October will be tested almost entirely in the next nineteen days.

Rest days between fixtures

One line that the standard fixture list does not give you. The gap between the derby and the AmaZulu match is four days, the tightest turnaround on the Chiefs calendar before Christmas, and it comes immediately after the hardest fixture on it.

Our record, including the losses

The reason to read a prediction page is whether the predictions are any good, so here is ours, read off the public log on 1 October 2026. We publish every pick with its result attached and we do not quietly drop the ones that went wrong.

The Betway Premiership line is the honest problem. It is our weakest league by some distance, and the reason is the draw: our rules score a draw as a loss whenever the pick said the match would not be one, and this division draws 40.4 percent of its matches. Chiefs are the sharpest example of that, which is covered in full on the Kaizer Chiefs results page.
