THOHOYANDOU – Black Leopards will fly to Kwazulu Natal to honour their Castle Premiership League fixture against Amazulu tomorrow.
The game is, for two reasons, expected to provide maximum entertainment. Leopards will broaden their chances of winning the league title if they manage to come back home with a full complement of points.
On the other hand “Usuthu” will throw everything within their reach for points, as the match means life or death to them. They are lying in the third last position on the log and losing the game may hamper their future in the elite league.
Amazulu have recently acquired the services of coach Shepherd Murape, who parted way with Ria Stars unceremoniously three months ago. Black Leopards have strengthened their back line by signing the former Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns sweeper, Jacob Tshisevhe early this week.
Tshisevhe is likely to be in the starting line tomorrow. The game is scheduled to start at 15:30 and will be screened live on TV.
In the other Castle Premiership matches Orlando Pirates will play against Manning Rangers at the Kanyamazane Stadium in Nelspruit.
Thembisa Classic will host Wits University at the Makhulong Stadium. On Sunday Ajax Cape Town will test their strength against Sundowns at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town. Bush Bucks and Moroka Swallows will meet at the Absa Stadium in East London.
