Chiefs take on Bloemfontein Celtic in the Macufe Cup on Sunday afternoon, but they have failed to win the cup for the past three seasons.
However, the former Ajax Cape Town midfielder says every game is taken seriously, whether it's a friendly or an official match.
"We take every game as a cup final, There are no friendlies when you are playing for Chiefs," Maluleka told the club's official website.
"This will be a big game.
"We faced Celtic recently twice in the MTN8. We lost the last three times we played for the Macufe Cup and, of course, that bites a bit."
"That's why we want to win the trophy this time around. Not only for ourselves, as players, but also for the club and the supporters. We are looking forward to the match."
Maluleka also expressed his delight after finding the back of the net in the win over Platinum Stars last week.
"It was a good feeling to score that goal on Sunday," he added.
"After having stayed dry for a long time. As a result of that goal, I am feeling more confident now."
