Team news

Kaizer Chiefs coach Fernando da Cruz is expected to rotate his squad heavily as he assesses his players ahead of the new season.

Scottland coach Norman Mapeza has also confirmed that his side will use two different teams during the match to manage the workload of his players.

The Zimbabwean side have included Brazilian striker Anderson Cardoso de Campos in their travelling squad following his recent arrival at the club.

What the coaches said

Norman Mapeza: “We are fully prepared, we are not coming from pre-season and we have played more than 20 of our league games which means that in terms of match fitness we are okay. Our opponents are coming from the off season, so maybe we might have a slight edge over them in terms of fitness.”

Fernando da Cruz: “It’s the last game of our preseason, the last step of our preseason, and it will also be the first meeting with our fans. We need to assess the squad because we will know after this game which player will be ready or not for the start of the season.”
