AmaZulu FC will play host to Orlando Pirates in their opening 2020/21 Premier Soccer League (PSL) match at Jonsson Kings Park Stadium on Saturday.
Usuthu are starting an era under new and ambitious owner Sandile Zungu, who has promised to transform the team into top four contenders this season.
This has put Ayanda Dlamini under pressure and the 36-year tactician will be keen to start his first full campaign as AmaZulu head coach with a win over Pirates.
The KwaZulu-Natal giants will be up against a Pirates side which is oozing with confidence after securing a 1-0 win over Cape Town City in the MTN8 quarter-finals last weekend.
