Durban City veteran midfielder Thabo Nodada has made a bold statement ahead of their league clash against Kaizer Chiefs this afternoon.

The KZN outfit will travel to the FNB Stadium on Sunday, 15 March, for a Betway Premiership encounter against Amakhosi.

The Citizens head into the match full of confidence after winning five and drawing one of their last six matches in all competitions.

Meanwhile, Chiefs—who have set their sights on securing a CAF Champions League spot—will be eager to bounce back after suffering four consecutive defeats across all competitions.

Nodada acknowledged the challenge but assured the readiness of his team for the clash.

“I think coming from the hype of winning a Netbank Cup match going into the semi-final, we’re feeling pretty confident in our ability and what we can do as a team,” said Nodada.

“It’s the last ten games of the season; it’s the business end. Every team is fighting for a position in the top eight.

“And I think this will be as difficult, if not more, than the game we just played. I think the team is ready, everybody knows what’s at stake, and we’re just waiting for the game.”

Nodada says they have had an impressive momentum as a team and see no reason they can’t pick up a victory against the mighty Chiefs.

“Very important [to get maximum points], just to keep the momentum,” he added.

“For the past four or five games, we’ve done really well. We’ve put our foot in there, we’ve got stuck in, and we’ve gotten the results. This game is no different. They’re a team just like us, with one pair of feet, one pair of arms.

“I don’t see a reason why we cannot go there and win.”
