Amakhosi won the first leg by 2-0 in Rustenburg last weekend and now Dikwena have to go all out today and turn the situation into their advantage.
Although motivated by their 2-0 midweek win against Mpumalanga Black Aces, the defending champions have to be victorious over the Soweto giants by 3-0 in order to progress through to the final as they target to defend their crown.
Although 28-year old keeper was rested against the Chilli Boys in Port Elizabeth on Wednesday as Kabelo Dambe did the job, he said the mood in the camp is high.
Speaking to the crew, the former Nathi Lions shot stopper said they'll go to Johannesburg not as visitors but as fighters.
"I must say that it's going to be a tough game but we have to do everything in our power to get a win. We need to score early and get settled in the game. We're a motivated side considering the fact that we have won against Chippa. The win will definitely help us ahead of this one against Chiefs.
"Our coach, Allan Freese has told us to keep focused because the game is not over yet. Anything is possible in cup football. We have done our homework and we'll do everything in our power to defend the cup. We'd like to call on our supporters to come and rally behind us as we aim to fight this battle to be in the final," said Mpontshane.
