Magau aim to bounce back

Magau United Brothers’ skipper, Charles Tshikumbana, believes that the match against the current log leaders of stream E offers them a good opportunity to return to their winning ways.

United have now failed to collect three points in three consecutive league games. They are hoping that their fortunes will change when they play against the current log leaders, Makhitha Oscar Stars, on Sunday. United are third on the league table, while Oscar Stars are a spot above them.

“It’s gonna be a nine pointer. If we collect maximum points, we will move above them, so there is a lot at stake,” Tshikumbana said.

“We just need to collect three points and maintain our position,” said Stars’ captain, Faith Ratombo. “We’re up for the game and we’ve been training well. We’re going to play against a good team, but at the end of the day we will pocket three points,” he said.

In the other matches, Rockers, the log leaders of stream C, will host their neighbours Ngwenani Young Chiefs. Wayeni Sea Robbers, who are leading stream F and still fresh from collecting maximum points when they beat Mashamba Academy 2-1, will play against Mabedi FC on Saturday. Muwaweni Lucky Stars are expected to collect six points on Sunday. Berea FC in stream H will travel to Masisi Young Stars on Saturday and on Sunday they will meet with Tshenzhelani Diiteleni.

Dipeni, the current log leaders of stream I, will visit Muhuyu Copper Stars on Saturday and welcome Makuya Try Again on Sunday. In stream B, Madridtas will play against Khubvi Dangerous Darkies on Saturday and Matangari Rising Stars on Sunday. Stream A’s United Artists will fight for league points with Govhu Black Bulls. Maelula United Brothers will host Nzhelele Young All Nations in a stream G clash. Tshivhazwaulu Peace Makers are expected to collect maximum points when they host Shayandima Disco Five in stream D.
