It is expected that football fans will be streaming to the Giyani Stadium tomorrow afternoon for the NFD match between Black Leopards and Vasco da Gama that will be staged there.

After Black Leopards’ excellent performance in last Sunday’s Nedbank Cup match at the Peter Mokaba Stadium, Leopards have their tails up and are ready for the match. When asked about their level of readiness, Leopards’ head coach, Mr Kosta Papic, stated that his charges were razor sharp. The exception is Lebohang Mabotja, who is still nursing his injury. Mabotja was taken off on a stretcher in their game against Chiefs.

Black Leopards beat the Capetonians 4-1 in their first-round league match at the Parow Park Stadium five months ago. Tomorrow’s match is scheduled to kick off at 15:30.

Also tomorrow afternoon, FC Cape Town will host Witbank Spurs. Roses United are poised to kill African Warriors when they meet at the Kaizer Sebotlelo Stadium in Bethlehem.

The match that is expected to draw a huge number of spectators is the Cape Town derby between Milano United and Santos at the Wynberg Military Stadium in Cape Town. Sivutsa Stars will entertain Chippa United in Nelspruit, while Cosmos will battle with Baroka FC. Both Cosmos and Baroka are in winning mode, but Cosmos will have an added advantage as they will be playing home.

Sunday will see Maluti FET College take on Thanda Royal Zulu at the Charles Mopedi Stadium in Phuthaditshaba. United FC will have a date with Blackburn Rovers at the Olympia Stadium in Rustenburg.
