Last season, Mwana Africa were dealt a big blow in their quest for a return to the Premiership following a 1-0 loss to DC Academy at this same stage.
Chauya Chipembere can find themselves in the same situation.
“We will be gunning for the three points and it’s not going to be an easy match for Black Rhinos,” said Chitehwe.
“We have been preparing for this match the same way that we always do for other games and the youngsters are ready for the battle.
“Rhinos are enjoying good form lately but they need to be at their best because my players rise to the occasion and they got motivated whenever we play these big teams,” said Chitehwe. The battle continues in Eastern region where log leaders Triangle face bottom placed Gaths Mine at Gibo while second placed Hippo Valley host Surrey at Chishamiso this afternoon.
