TSHOLOTSHO FC head  coach Farai Tawachera has described this afternoon clash with Highlanders in Beitbridge as an ordinary game adding that Bosso is not a 'special' side.

His side comes into the match after having held current champions Caps United last Sunday in Harare.

Tsholotsho has not won or lost a league match this season.

On the other hand, Highlanders will feel confident on the back of a 3-2 victory over ZPC Kariba.

According to NewsDay,Tawachera  said football was about confidence and they would give Bosso a good game in their new-found home.

"There is nothing special about this game. It's not a special assignment.

" Holding Caps United was a confidence booster and that we drew with the champions away from home raises the boys' confidence more," Tawachera said.

"I have a lot of youngsters in my team and football is all about confidence. We have been picking up points and that is good for Tsholotsho. We hope to have a good game against Highlanders."

The Chronicle quoted him saying "The game against Highlanders to us will be easier because the boys are already psyched up.

"They are always excited to play against the so called big guns as evidenced by their performance against Caps United,".

Highlanders play their first league match away from Barbourfields Stadium after their away tie to Harare City was postponed to make away for the Independence Trophy competition.

Coach Erol Akbay said the match wont be easy for his side.

"It is not going to be easy against Tsholotsho, a team that is yet to lose this year, but we have to come up with a plan to beat them," Akbay said.
