Interestingly, GU had dethroned Gunners when they won the 2012 title, after the Lobatse side had triumphed a year earlier. Phillimon Makwengwe led GU in his first of the two stints at the club; in the 2012 final played at the Lobatse Sports Complex.

Moyagoleele beat Mochudi Centre Chiefs 4-2 on penalties after the teams were deadlocked at 0-0 in regulation time. Pontsho Moloi who will this evening face Makwengwe on the opposite technical bench, captained Magosi in the final defeat.
