Ajax Cape Town coach Stanley Menzo is confident ahead of his side’s Absa Premiership clash with Free State Stars at Goble Park Stadium on Wednesday.

The Urban Warriors will be hoping to get their first victory of the season when they take on Ea Lla Koto after a seven-match winless run so far.

The 53-year-old says he is optimistic that his side can achieve this.

‘Everyone is saying to me that we never win at Free State. But why? This is something we can overcome. Maybe it is good for a fresh vision from someone like me who has never been there before,’ Menzo told the Ajax Cape Town website.

In 13 Absa Premiership matches between Ajax and Stars, the Urban Warriors have suffered 10 defeats and managed to claim just three draws.

Kick-off has been set for 19:30.
