Date: 08 March 2016
Venue: Olen Park
AmaZulu will be looking to cause an upset when they face struggling Absa Premiership outfit, Jomo Cosmos, at Olen Park in a Nedbank Cup encounter.
The match scheduled to get underway at 19h30.
The hosts have suffered four straight defeats in the league, with Supersport United's 4-2 drubbing being their latest heartbreak. Their opponents, on the other hand, are straight from a 1-0 win away to Vasco da Gama in thrie NFD clash.
The Durban outfit will also be boosted by the return of Avela Cezu who was brught back after his contract was initially terminated for failing to adhere to the club's code of conduct, so his presence is sure to give the team a much needed boost.
Usuthu are currently 7th on the NFD league standings, ten points behind Baroka FC, who have already caused an upset by knocking out Chippa United. Ezenkosi are struggling in 14th place on the Absa Premiership standings, so this clash will be one they will surely be looking to win as a means of gaining some momentum and much needed confidence.
The winner will book themselves a spot in the Nedbank Cup Last 16 and put themselves in a good position to lift the coveted trophy.
Here is how they line up:
Cosmos: Modiba, Nsabiyumva, Mthembu, Jampies, Macuphu, Msomi, Mntambo, Mukamba, Mashumba, Lingwati, Makobela.
AmaZulu: Stephens, Hadebe, van Heerden, Robertson, T. Dlamini, Cezu, Bhengu, Mukuka, Niang, Hlongwa, Dlamini.
