The match is set to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of Ntsoelengoe's passing at the age of 54 on 8 May 2006.
Cheifs' Legends captain has described it a "big honour" to play for one of South Africa's greatest ever midfielders.
“It’s a big honour to play for Ace, who was one of our all-time best players,” Nzama tells the club's official website.
The former Bafana Bafana full-back has also shared a touching memory from the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea/Japan.
“Before the 2002 World Cup, there was a legends game held in South-Korea. Ace was part of that match. He asked to borrow my boots, which I did," he adds.
“And those same boots Ace used for the legends game, I used thereafter for my three matches with South Africa at the World Cup.
"It felt wonderful and I played a great World Cup, thanks to Ace.” The match is scheduled to start at 15h00 at Randfontein's Mohlakeng Stadium, which will also officially be renamed the Ace Ntsoelengoe Stadium.
