THE Castle Premier Soccer League enters round 20 with potentially explosive fixtures lined up for Saturday and Sunday.
Barbourfields Stadium will on Saturday be the venue for the game between Bulawayo City and bruised Shabanie Mine who went down to Highlanders 2-0 last Sunday.
Relegation threatened Tsholotsho FC date ambitious Yadah FC in match that will be played at Morris Depot. Kelvin Kaindu's How Mine entertain title contenders Ngezi Platinum.
Star studded FC Platinum will fight it against inform Chicken Inn at Mandava Stadium. Unpredictable Black Rhinos will clash against former champions Dynamos at Rufaro Stadium.
On Sunday, shrewd former How Mine and Bulawayo City coach Philani "Beefy" Ncube, will return to Bulawayo with Harare City charges to take on Erol Akbay mentored Highlanders at Emagumeni.
"Harare City are a tricky team. Our boys should believe in themselves and come to the party. We are still in the championship race and as such we cannot afford to lose to Harare City on Sunday.
"Despite the fact that we lost two strikers (Prince Dube and Roderick Mutuma), we will field a very strong team," said Akbay.
Saturday:
Bulawayo City v Shabanie (Barbourfields), Yadah v Tsholotsho (Morris Depot), How Mine v Ngezi Platinum (Luveve), FC Platinum v Chicken Inn (Mandava), Black Rhinos v Dynamos (Rufaro)
Sunday
Highlanders v Harare City (Barbourfields), CAPS United v ZPC Kariba (NSS)
