The Soweto giants already have a win over Milford this season, having claimed a 2-0 victory in their opening Betway Premiership fixture.
“The advantage or positive point is to play at home,” said Ouaddou after the draw.
“It’s always an advantage to play in front of our fans. But after all, it will be a difficult game.
“You will remember when we played Milford in the first game of the season, I said not many teams will beat them.
“I think they have a lot of confidence, it’s a well-coached team, they are disciplined, very well organised, they can run as well. So, it will not be an easy game.”
The Buccaneers are targeting the Carling Knockout as a potential first trophy of the season after losing the MTN8 final to Mamelodi Sundowns this past weekend.
