HIGHLANDERS remained the only team in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League yet to drop points following their 5-3 win over Hardbody at Barbourfields Stadium on Sunday.
From their opening two matches, the Bulawayo giants who are fourth on the log with six points have been lethal as they have scored nine goals and conceded three.
In their opening game of the season they beat Blue Rangers 4-0 before beating Hardbody 5-3 in a tightly contested encounter.
Highlanders trail Shabanie Mine, Chicken Inn and Monomotapa who have seven points from three outings.
Bosso's pending game is against FC Platinum and the match is likely to be played on Wednesday next week at Mandava Stadium.
At the weekend Highlanders got their goals from double scorer Graham Ncube, Simon Munawa, Heritein Masuku and Masimba Mambare.
Masuku and Mambare missed the season's opening match against Blue Rangers but acquitted themselves well in the Hardbody match where they came from the bench.
Highlanders coach Kelvin Kaindu said despite an avalanche of goals, he was not happy with his team's defence.
"It's important we got the three points but we conceded easy goals. I am not happy with the way we defended. We are good when going forward that's why we scored those goals but our defending was poor.
"We won but we still have lots of work to do," said the Zambian expatriate.
The result saw Bosso add onto Hardbody's misery, as they are yet to pick a point after three outings. They are second from the bottom.
