HIGH-RIDING Highlanders will be aiming to take their unbeaten run to a record 18 matches when they host Gunners in a Castle Lager Premiership tie at Barbourfields on Sunday. Bosso are seven points clear off second placed Shabanie Mine who are on 32 points.
The Bulawayo giants showed their championship credentials this season when they beat rivals CAPS United 2-0 at Rufaro on Saturday.
Former Motor Action forward Masimba Mambare struck a brace that gave Taurai Mangwiro and Mkhupali Masuku a baptism of fire in their new tenure as CAPS United coaches.
Gunners had shared the spoils with Hwange and will be aiming to become the first team to stop Bosso this season.
But if the Bosso vintage show at Rufaro is anything to go by then it appears a tall order for Chando Kupisa at fortress Barbourfields.
In their last meeting, Gunners came close to sharing the spoils with Bosso but an own goal by Moses Demera gave Highlanders the points.
Fixtures:
Saturday: Monomotapa v Chicken Inn (Rufaro), Black Mambas v CAPS United (Morris Depot)
Sunday: Dynamos v Quelaton (Rufaro), Shabanie v Motor Action (Maglas), Highlanders v Gunners (BF), Hwange v Harare City (Colliery), Hardbody v FC Platinum (Ascot), Buffaloes v Rangers (Sakubva).
