ZESCO United’s opponents in the CAF champions League , Royal Leopards of Eswatini have arrived in the country ahead of Saturdays second leg clash scheduled for the Levy Mwanawasa stadium.
The Eswatini based side landed at Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe international airport at 15:30 aboard Proflight ahead of what promises to be a do-or-die encounter for the hosts.
Royal Leopards beat ZESCO United 1-0 in the first leg encounter which was played in Eswatini on Saturday last week.
Speaking on arrival at the Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe airport, Royal Leopards head coach Edwin Matsebule says: “This will be a different game all together. They will come at us especially that they are at home. We have made our secret plan and we know what to do exactly.
This will be a new game together. They are a good team, they gave us a hard time at home.”
ZESCO United will be hoping to make amends on Saturday by beating Royal Leopards to qualify for the second round of the CAF champions league qualifiers.
