How to watch Kaizer Chiefs pre-season match against Vitesse
Kaizer Chiefs will test their squad against SBV Vitesse Arnhem on Tuesday evening in their first pre-season match. Amakhosi are currently in the Netherlands for two weeks as they look to prepare for the upcoming 2025/26 Betway Premiership season. Having finished ninth last season, Amahosi are desperate for a good season after years of disappointment. The match against Vitesse will give Kaizer Chiefs head coach Nasreddine Nabi a clear indication of where his team lacks. So far, six new players have been added to the squad, with more expected to join in the coming weeks. With six coming in, Chiefs have also released several players in the past few weeks. The club captain is not part of the pre-season squad in the Netherlands as he is believed to have signed for an Austrian team. Amakhosi will play their first pre-season training match against Vitesse on Tuesday, 8 July. Kick-off will be at 19:00. The match will be live-streamed on the Kaizer Chiefs YouTube Channel. As part of the tour, Amakhosi will play five friendly matches against Dutch top-tier sides from both the Eredivisie and Eerste Divisie. Four of the matches will be open to the public, with one being held behind closed doors.

Kaizer Chiefs said in a statement: Kaizer Chiefs will conduct their 2025 pre-season training camp in the Netherlands. The team is set to arrive on July 4 and depart on July 19, and will be based in the town of Apeldoorn, approximately 80 kilometres from Amsterdam.

This recently concluded season, it was another underwhelming campaign from Kaizer Chiefs that saw them finish ninth in the Betway Premiership. Though Chiefs did win their first piece of silverware in a decade when they beat Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final last month, it did not hide the fact that the AmaKhosi finished outside the top eight for a second season in a row.
