BACK-TO-BACK victories against fellow relegation candidates has given CAPS United belief that they will move out of the danger zone sooner.
Successive 1-0 wins against Hwange and Sheasham marked the first time CAPS united won consecutive matches this season since beating ZPC Kariba and Black Rhinos in April.
They have found form just in time for the run-in and also the Chibuku Super Cup, which is now at semi-final stage.
Tomorrow CAPS United travel to Baobab Stadium for a date with newcomers Simba Bhora, who have also found form and have since moved away from the relegation zone.
CAPS United coach, Lloyd Chitembwe expects a tough match against Tonderai Ndiraya’s Simba Bhora.
“We expect a very difficult match against Simba but I still believe we can win it,” he said.
“All matches are important, they are played to be won and it’s the reason why we are here.
“It’s always a challenge, just like playing every premier league side. Just like Sheasham is very competitive and they gave everything, this is what we should expect against Simba Bhora.
“They (Simba Bhora) have gone a number of matches without a defeat with just victories and that tells something about their confidence levels,” he said.
Chitembwe refused to single out the midfield duo of Devon Chafa and Rodwell Chinyengetere saying every member of the squad is equally important as they fight to bring positive results to the team.
Chafa and Chinyengetere have been outstanding in CAPS United’s recent outings.
“It’s still down to the team. They can be outstanding just the two of them but it’s not possible to win the matches with these two only. It takes the effort of the whole team to perform at the optimum level for us to get a good result. “I am happy with their contribution so far and also the contribution of the entire team when we are in position and when we are out of position. It has been superb in the last four matches,” he said.
