TP Mazembe goalkeeper Muteba Kidiaba says his side will not underrate Berekum Chelsea ahead of their Champions League clash on July 22.

The four-time winners will battle the Ghanaian side at their newly constructed Mazembe 14,500 seater-stadium knowing anything short of victory will ruin their chances this year.

The experienced shot-stopper is well aware of the dangers of underrating the debutants and insists the team will go the full hog.

“Chelsea won against Zamalek and so they are not a small team. They are not a small team at all,” Kidiaba told Kumasi-based Fox FM

“We are playing in a new stadium. We won a friendly 5-0 on this pitch. We want to win and take three points. It’s as simple as that,”
