Maluleka, who worked with both Sammy Troughton and Steve Barker during his days at University of Pretoria, says that they will prepare for the National First Division outfit just like they would for any other club. "Nothing will change, the preparation won't, but I would just like to think the performance will this weekend compared to how it was against any other team in the league," the 28-year-old said via Chiefs' official website. "We are going into this game with a serious mind set, forget which league they are playing in, and we want to make sure that we get a positive result, we don't want any surprises. A positive result come Saturday will enable us to progress to the next stage of the Nedbank Cup and that is important to us in our quest to win the trophies that are left for us." Amakhosi face Stellenbosch at Athlone Stadium at 8:15pm on Saturday evening.
