However, Pirates will face a confident Usuthu side which defeated Manchester City in pre-season and has brought in some talented players during the transfer window<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Committed to playing entertaining football, AmaZulu have included some experienced players in their squad, such as Letladi Madubanya and Aubrey Mathibe.<\/p>\n

Madubanya believes that his new team is prepared to challenge strong outfits like Pirates this season and is relishing the chance to play against the Buccaneers.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery game is important to win but more especially the first game of the season, away from home and against one of the so-called big teams,\u201d he told AmaZulu\u2019s official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we\u2019re in a good place after the work we\u2019ve put in during the past few weeks and we\u2019ll really see how far we\u2019ve come when we play the first competitive match.\u201d \u2013 Goal<\/a><\/p>\n
