McCarthy highlights AmaZulu's major concern ahead of Mamelodi Sundowns clash

Usuthu, last season's runners up, will start the new campaign against the champions after a "disruptive" pre-season according to their star coach

AmaZulu head coach Benni McCarthy has revealed the fitness worries he has ahead of their Premier Soccer League encounter against Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus Versfeld on Friday.

McCarthy missed as many as 11 players for the MTN8 quarter-final game which Usuthu lost 2-1 against Cape Town City in Durban on Sunday, but the tactician is hopeful he would have all of them available for the season opener.

"It is not an easy game away from home against Sundowns, but we can prepare ourselves very well," McCarthy said as was quoted by The Times.
