Durban City looks to find redemption against Usuthu in Durban derby return leg

Athini Maqokolo of Amazulu FC challenged by Terrence Mashego during the Betway Premiership first leg at Moses Mabhida Stadium in October.

Durban City have a chance to even the score against KwaZulu-Natal rivals AmaZulu on Saturday at Chatsworth Stadium in the pair’s second meeting of the season.

The last time these two sides met, AmaZulu walked away with a narrow 1-0 victory and, perhaps more importantly, the psychological advantage in the Durban derby.

But Saturday’s clash arrives under very different circumstances. AmaZulu will not be facing the same uncertain Durban City outfit they edged earlier in the campaign.

This is now a side carrying the confidence of Nedbank Cup champions, a team that has already etched its name into South African football history this season.
