DDC: Chiefs maintain perfect start as Pirates drop points

Kaizer Chiefs maintained their perfect start to the 2026/27 Dstv Diski Challenge (DDC) campaign with a 4-0 rout of Marumo Gallants over the weekend.

Amakhosi are two points clear at the summit of the table, having picked up 12 points in their opening four matches of the season.

Sekhukhune United closely trail in second place with 10 points following a 4-1 win at the expense of Chippa United, and remain unbeaten like the log leaders.

Elsewhere, Golden Arrows edged Richards Bay 1-0 and are in third place with nine points, while provincial rivals AmaZulu FC fell 2-1 to Polokwane City.

Siwelele FC settled for a goalless draw with Stellenbosch FC, as Mamelodi Sundowns climbed to seventh after beating TS Galaxy 2-1.

Notably, the Brazilians have a game in hand as their match against Kruger United was postponed to an alternative date.

In the middle of the pack, defending champions Orlando Pirates sit eighth with four points following a one-all draw with rookies Kruger United.

Bottom-placed Durban City stretched their winless run to four games after their KwaZulu-Natal derby clash with Milford FC ended in a 1-1 stalemate.
