Marumo Gallants assistant coach Raymond Mdaka is "very confident" the team can avoid relegation after their 1-1 draw with Kaizer Chiefs.

Ranga Chivaviro cancelled out Ashley du Preez's opening goal, as the Limpopo outfit picked up a point at the FNB Stadium on Saturday night.

The point takes Gallants off the bottom spot on the DStv Premiership table and up to 15th place and Mdaka is confident of the side's chances of beating the drop.
