Kaizer Chiefs look like underdogs against Wydad Casablanca and that's a good sign - Akumu

Kaizer Chiefs midfielder-cum-defender Anthony Akumu does not mind Amakhosi being regarded as the inferior side when they face Wydad Casablanca in Sunday’s Caf Champions League Group C match.

Facing the 2017 champions who were also finalists in this competition two years later, Akumu knows that they might not be mentioned in high regard ahead of their second group match.

The Kenya international feels that carrying the underdog tag into this game to be played in neutral Burkina Faso can play into their advantage.

“Wydad Athletic are a good side, they've been in the competition and they are still there, I don't know for how many years, but they have been there and have been doing well,” Akumu told Chiefs media.
