Giovanni Solinas has decided to make numerous changes to the starting line-up for tonight’s CAF Confederation first leg preliminary round clash against Zanzibar’s Zimamoto, which is played at Port Elizabeth’s Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
Compared to Saturday’s cup game against Orlando Pirates, Virgil Vries, Erick Mathoho, Daniel Cardoso, Teenage Hadebe, Siphosakhe Ntiya-Ntiya, Kabelo Mahlasela and Dax Andrianarimanana all come into the starting XI.
Only Willard Katsande, Lebogang Manyama, Khama Billiat and Leonardo Castro also played in the Soweto Derby in the weekend.
Zimamoto qualified for the Confederation Cup thanks to finishing second in the league in Zanzibar, only one point behind champions JKU.
The club has, however, struggled somewhat this season, as they were down in ninth spot before the FIFA international break.
The Confederation Cup encounter will take place at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium. Kick-off at 19:30.
The referee is Mehemia Shoovaleka from Namibia.
