Amakhosi have been battling for a stable combination at the back, but Gordinho has come in in recent and made the spot his own.
He will face his biggest test today when Chiefs face Orlando Pirates in the Soweto Derby, but Mathoho is confident they will come through unscathed against their fierce rivals.
“My combination with Gordhino is coming on okay because we communicate well during games and we understand each other well," ‘Tower’ says.
“We cover each other well and that's what has been key for us in the last few matches. Now I hope to stay injury free so we can both help the club going forward.”
