It's game one of two in the CAF Champions League as AmaZulu host Big Bullets. This is a 1st Preliminary Round fixture played over two legs and nothing will be decided tonight.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
