Kaizer Chiefs legend Arthur Zwane confident of masterminding Orlando Pirates' downfall once again after Soweto Derby masterclass as AmaZulu FC travel to Soweto - 'We can beat anyone'

Kaizer Chiefs legend Arthur Zwane is adamant AmaZulu will come out victorious against Orlando Pirates in the Premier Soccer League clash. 

Zwane was recently announced as Usuthu co-coach alongside Vusumuzi Vilakazi. The two coaches replaced Spanish tactician Pablo Franco Martin who failed to win any of the three PSL matches he was in charge for. 

Ahead of the much-anticipated encounter, the 51-year-old mentor has sent a warning to the Jose Riveiro-led team. 

"We want our players to play without fear. You can't be in the PSL and have fear of winning games, we can beat anyone. Stellenbosch, with the quality team they have, not so long ago were playing in the final and they did well," Zwane said, per SowetanLive. 

"And we gave them a scare, so it was not a walk in the park for them. When we look at where we come from and as much as Stellenbosch beat us, they had to dig deep for them to go to the next round. So, there are no easy games in the league and we still have a lot to do in terms of trying to make sure that there are tactical abilities in the squad and there is a tactical understanding and endurance.

"We are not worried about the opposition at the moment, we are worried about our squad, we want to get the best out of the players. There is no doubt we have so much quality in the team. The players are coming from a situation where they have been losing games and the morale is a bit low,” he added. 

"So, it is our responsibility to try to lift it and make the players start believing in themselves even more. I think there are a lot of positives we took from our last game against Stellenbosch that will help us to start believing in ourselves." 

Zwane outclassed Riveiro's Pirates twice in the league when he was still Chiefs head coach two years ago. 

The Buccaneers come to this match with a 100 percent winning record in the league - having won all their first four opening matches. 

On the other hand, AmaZulu, who are at the bottom of the PSL table, are yet to register a victory. They lost all of their first three opening league matches.

The ambitious Zwane will be aiming to keep his great record against Pirates, while AmaZulu will be looking to improve on their disappointing start to the season. 

Bucs, on the other hand, will be hoping to make use of a home-ground advantage and stretch their PSL win streak to five-in-a-row. 

The match is set for 19h30 at the Orlando Stadium on Friday.
