There is plenty at stake for both sides as they look to qualify for the quarter-finals. While Amajita requires just a draw to qualify, Young Chipolopolo needs a win.
The Zambians are looking to exact revenge on South Africa following defeat in the U20 COSAFA Cup final.
Mulwanda told Zambia's FAZ TV on Facebook that his team was ready for the challenge at hand and looked to exact revenge on Amajita.
"It is a very crucial and very important game for the team, we just have to be positive and get a positive result because the boys understand it is a game we have to win and move to the next round,” Mulwanda said FAZ TV.
The coach continued: "It going to be a different ball game, we know South Africa very well, they beat us in COSAFA, and we also just want to take that revenge, and beat them, we lost 2-0 in Mozambique, and I think we have to make amends because that is what we came to do here."
Mulwanda said the team has put in the hard work during training to ensure they were ready for the South African challenge.
"We have worked on our finishing, we have told our boys to use the chances that we create, and get the goals that we need," he said. "I am sure even them (South Africa), they are aware that it’s not an easy game. Most of them were in Mozambique and they saw what happened, so from that I think everyone wants space to try and amend what we did."
