“We know that we are up against difficult opponents in Black Leopards who are a formidable side,” Antipas told Amazulu’s website.
“But I believe that if we go out there and put in 100% effort and we back ourselves, maybe we can walk away with maximum points.
“Honestly, we have no information about them (Leopards). What we know is that they are a very strong side judging from the previous seasons in the NFD.
“They are a side that you cannot write-off. So, we have to go there with a positive mindset and a 100% attitude,” concluded the Zimbabwean, who took charge of the team in the off-season following the dismissal of Steve Barker.
Lidoda Duvha finished eighth in the second tier last term with 40 points from 30 games — four points above AmaZulu.
