Dynamos kept their slim title hopes alive with a 1-0 win against ZPC Kariba at Nyamhunga Stadium.
Dembare, who have in the past struggled to win on their previous visits to the resort town, secured the crucial victory courtesy of Shadreck Nyahwa's winner just after the hour mark.
The win ensured Dynamos dislodged struggling Highlanders, who continue to sing the blues following a drab goalless draw against Bulawayo Chiefs at Babourfields.
It's been a difficult finish to the season for Highlanders as they have now gone for six league games without a win, with their victory coming in early September against Yadah Stars.
After initially getting off to a flier in the title race which they led for most of the season, the Bulawayo giants are now in third position with 48 points.
Meanwhile, in another match played on Sunday, Caps United were held to a 1-1 draw against bottom-placed Cranborne Bullets at the National Sports Stadium.
Makepekepe, who have been on a recovery in recent weeks have now moved to eighth position on the log on 37 points from 29 matches while Bullets, who are on 23 points now look set for a return to the Northern Region Division One League.
