Intriguing league ties lined-up

The be MOBILE Premier League action enters its ninth week with some interesting fixtures on the cards. In the first fixture of the weekend, Township Rollers hope to extend their lead at the top when they host BMC at the University of Botswana Stadium tonight.

Victory will see Rollers brighten their title chances but for BMC, defeat will be a major blow in the quest to avoid relegation. The 2007 Coca-Cola Cup champions lie 14th on the standings with only five points from six games while Rollers are perched at the top with 18 points from seven games. After losing valuable players like Tumisang Sekanonyana and Mosimanegape Ramohibidu, BMC are struggling to cope. But the 'meat boys' still have good players including Musa Ohilwe and Thebe Maiketso.

Their defence will have to be tight against a free-scoring Rollers. Terrence Mandaza has found his scoring boots this season and is currently the league's leading goal scorer. He will once again lead Rollers' attack. The current Rollers' squad seems balanced as compared to the previous ones. The defence looks very tight while the attack is sharp as evidenced by the fact that Rollers have so far conceded the least number of goals - five - and scored the most goals - 18.
