“There is never a right time to play anyone. Everyone prepares to win. We have to fight. We expect to play a fighting team, a running team and one that is very technical,” said Johnson as quoted by AmaZulu’s official website

“We have not started on a good note, we have played good football but we have not got the results.

“The players have done really well; we know it’s going to be a tough game tomorrow but it is our home game and we have to be confident.”

The Durban-based club also confirmed that the former Pirates striker Lehlohonolo Majoro is doubtful for the match due to an injury he sustained from their clash with Polokwane City.

“Striker, Lehlohonolo Majoro is the only injury doubt for the match after he picked up a knock against Rise and Shine,” the club said on the website.

The match gets underway at the King Zwelithini Stadium at 19:30.
