Co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Ben Khalil Youssef are preparing the troops for matchday three in the CAF Confederation Cup. The first two outings were the 2-1 loss to Al-Masry in Suez, Egypt, before the 1-1 draw with Zamalek in Polokwane.

Right up next are Zambian Super League giants ZESCO United on Sunday, 25 January. Kick off will be at 15:00 at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
