23 Jun 2015 at 10:30hrs | Views
HIGHLANDERS FC and bitter rivals Dynamos square of at Rufaro Stadium this Sunday in what might not be an explosive encounter.
Nine years ago in July, Bosso beat Dembare home and away with 1-0 and 2-0 scorelines and since then they have struggled to win against the defending champions.
It was in that same year that they last won the league championship under the guidance of Methembe Ndlovu.
Since 2006, the two teams have played 17 games, Dynamos won eight of those with Highlanders winning two and they drew seven.
Twice Highlanders have lost the championship to Dynamos on goal difference.
Highlanders are no longer a formidable side as it has struggles to snatch victories this season.
The fading Bulawayo giants are in a lowly eighth position on the log with 19 points from 13 outings.
Highlanders trail city neighbours and log leaders Chicken Inn by 10 points.
