The curtain comes down on the 2011 domestic soccer calendar today at the National Sports Stadium with Dynamos and Motor Action clashing in a potentially explosive Mbada Diamonds Cup.
The two teams have met three times this year with the Mighty Bulls winning on two occasions while DeMbare have been victorious once.
Motor Action won the first league encounter between the two sides 2-nil before dumping the Glamour Boys out of the Banc ABC Super Cup at the semi-final stage.
DeMbare however avenged the league defeat with a 2-nil victory a fortnight ago.
By 6 pm today, the last man standing would have achieved either the league and cup double or would be the undisputed cup kings of 2011.
Motor Action have the Banc ABC trophy in their cabinet while Dynamos last week won their 18th league title.
For the Mbada Diamonds Cup sponsors, Sunday is simply D-Day.
The Mbada Diamonds Cup is the richest tournament in the country with the winners guaranteed US$75 000 and a sponsorship of US$150 000 to take part in the CAF Confederation Cup.
Today's losers will get US$50 000.
