Kaizer Chiefs has some negative statistics!

In the current season, Kaizer Chiefs have managed to secure only three wins in their first ten matches across all competitions — a start that equals their worst-ever win rate at this point of a PSL season.

With these negative figures, Kaizer Chiefs have set a record that is unlikely to be repeated easily; the question remains whether Fernando da Cruz will be able to turn things around in the coming period.

Negative figures for Kaizer Chiefs

Amakhosi have now hit this same statistical marker for the fifth time since the pandemic, according to figures from OptaJabu — a worrying pattern that has repeatedly disrupted the club's competitive rhythm across several campaigns since 2020.

Their league form tells an equally troubling story: of eight Betway Premiership matches played this season, five have ended in draws. OptaJabu's analysis shows this equals the club's highest number of stalemates at this stage of a PSL campaign, putting them level with the 1999/00, 2005/06, 2006/07 and 2015/16 seasons.

That tendency to share the spoils points to a deeper problem — Kaizer Chiefs have found it hard to turn promising positions into wins, with five draws from eight league games suggesting they struggle to produce the decisive moment when it matters. Historically, this statistical quirk has surfaced across different eras of the club's PSL history, stretching back nearly three decades.

Winning only in domestic championships

Those three victories in ten matches cover both league and cup commitments, offering a fuller view of how Amakhosi have performed in the early weeks of the 2026/27 season.

The fact that this equals their lowest win rate specifically at the ten-game mark suggests the difficulties have been steady rather than confined to any one competition.

OptaJabu's figures, which show this is the fifth time since the pandemic that the club has opened a campaign this way, add further weight to the current situation. Such a recurring pattern since 2020 invites questions about consistency and whether the club can build real early-season momentum in recent years.
