THE Bulawayo Province Zifa Division Two and Three Leagues will be in full swing this weekend with BCC Gold Stars hosting table toppers Casmyn Mine at Luveve Youth Centre.
Clubs are expected to up the ante as they gear for the Willisgrove Cup to be launched this evening.
The city based BCC Gold Stars are looking to get maximum points from this highly competitive league encounter in pursuit of their goal to dislodge Casmyn from first position.
BCC Gold Stars will be no pushovers as they come into this tie with their tails up after edging 13th placed Lobengula Stars 1-0 in their backyard.
Breathing heavily behind the leaders are Xolani Moyo-chaired Zimplow who take on unpredictable youthful Ajax Hotspurs who seem to have raised their game of late.
Siphambaniso Dube, Ajax Hotspurs spokesperson, said that he is pleased that his investment in his junior policy is paying off.
“The team’s secret to its improvement is continuity and investment in the junior policy,” said Dube.
Dube’s youngsters have pushed the club to fourth place on the table.
Rising Magwegwe Pirates, from one of the city’s oldest suburbs Old Magweg, will be going against ZRP Bulawayo at Marisha in an early encounter at 12PM.
In Division Three, log leaders Toronto FC will seek to emphasise their quest for promotion with a win over Luveve based Luveve BX1 in a game set for Luveve Youth Centre.
