Bosso stalk troubled Triangle

THIS afternoon's Castle Lager Premier Soccer League leaders Highlanders stalk troubled Triangle at Gibbo stadium.
Highlanders with 20 points are only a point ahead of Hwange and Dynamos, who have garnered 19 points apiece.
The Bulawayo giants, although yet to lose a match in 10 games, are coming from a 1-1 home draw against FC Platinum in an unconvincing display at Barbourfields Stadium last Sunday.
They came back from behind and head coach Kelvin Kaindu is likely to go on another reshuffling exercise this afternoon to put up a strong squad against Triangle who have only won one match at home, with the second win registered away to Buffaloes at Sakubva Stadium.
Triangle last won at home on April 13 when they beat Chiredzi 3-1 in the Lowveld derby with Lameck Nhamo notching a hat-trick.
Their last matches were two massive defeats, 0-4 to FC Platinum and 1-5 to ZPC Kariba and coach Biggie Zuze would be hard-pressed for a home win against Highlanders this afternoon after the 0-1 loss to Dynamos in Harare last Sunday.
Struggling Triangle are on position 14 on the log table with a mere eight points from two wins and two draws, having lost six times.
But Highlanders could be making wholesome changes especially on right-back.
Simon Munawa has been finding it difficult on that flank while midfielder Welcome Ndiweni could see himself in the starting line-up. Milton Ncube and Charles Sibanda had a bad day last Sunday, although the latter found the equaliser.
Upfront, Bosso will have Ozias Zibande, Knox Mutizwa, Gabriel Nyoni and Cleopas Dube with attacking midfielder Kudakwashe Mahachi providing the tonic.
