Tinkler expects the Tunisians to approach the match with caution after they scored an away goal in their 1-1 draw this past weekend at Orlando Stadium.
“We need to find ways of breaking down their defensive line because they make it extremely difficult,” he says. “We need to be a little bit more creative; we need to create space for ourselves in the final third.
“If you look at their record at home, they have not lost and they didn't concede many goals either. At home they are a very difficult team to break down. We are talking about the group stages of the competitions where people were playing for points.
“We are talking about the final now. The approach is going to be different now. They will be looking to protect what they have and we need to take advantage of that. But we got nothing to lose … we have to go there and look for goal.”
Tinkler adds that they have done analysis on Etoile and have an idea of what to expect.
“We've been working with our strategy on how we are going to break them down. We've been very good away from home. We scored 10 goals in this competition away from home and we need to do that again; we need to go there with a positive attitude, a positive mentality and a winning mentality.”
