Coach Steve Barker is weary of Usuthu’s intentions to climb up the log table

“We need to start winning our games at home. AmaZulu have done well in their past two matches and we need to be weary of them this Saturday. They will be looking to climb up on the log”. Barker told AmaTuks.co.za.

Meanwhile AmaZulu extended their unbeaten streak in the league to seven matches with a 1-1 draw at home against Orlando Pirates in midweek.

Usuthu has only managed two (2) wins from the twelve (12) matches they have played on the road thus far, drew five (5) and lost five (5).
