SOUTHERN Region Division One League log pacesetters Tsholotsho FC, Technosphere and Plumtree Chiefs hope to maintain their lead as the league enters its fourth week. Thandiwe Moyo Sports Correspondent
The three teams lead the log with seven points from three games with goal difference separating them.
Tsholotsho will face one of their toughest assignments when they take on 1988 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions Zimbabwe Saints at White City Stadium tomorrow.
Saints suffered their second defeat of the season last weekend against Plumtree Chiefs falling 0-1 while Tsholotsho beat Trumus 2-0.
Tsholotsho, coached by Lizwe Sweswe, have been tipped as one of the title contenders while Saints continue to struggle in attempt to get back into the top flight.
Second-placed Technosphere will travel to Ntabazinduna for a date with the prison wardens. Both teams have not lost a match.
However, Technospere won their match last weekend against Elephants while Ntabazinduna played a goalless draw against ZPC Hwange.
Plumtree Chiefs who gave up their chance to play in the top flight when they merged with Bantu Rovers, will travel to Hwange to play Kabwe Warriors.
