Kaizer Chiefs lost at home to Golden Arrows on Saturday, missing out on the opportunity of cutting the points gap to log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns.
Amakhosi went down 1-0 at the FNB Stadium thanks to a fifth-minute goal from Knox Mutizwa.
As a result, the Soweto giants remained in third place in the standings, 16 points behind Masandawana with three matches in hand.
Kaizer Chiefs were granted a DStv Premiership lifeline on Friday when they won an arbitration ruling regarding the two matches last December that they failed to show up for after an outbreak of Covid-19 at Naturena.
However, they failed to capitalise on that ‘win’ by losing to Golden Arrows.
The Glamour Boys will next be in action away to Chippa United on Saturday, 2 April at 17:00 – unless one of those two matches against Cape Town City FC and, coincidently, Golden Arrows, are scheduled prior to their trip to face the Chilli Boys.
