Line drawn as Fighters, Green Lovers clash

The two will finally meet after their match was postponed due to Uniao Flamengo Santos’ appeal. After a vital 2-1 win against Santos on Wednesday afternoon, Fighters will hope to keep up the momentum against a Green Lovers side, which has been inactive since the season ended.  Fighters, the four-time Premier League champions, are yet to make a return to the top flight after two seasons in the lower division.  A home win against Lovers would motivate the side ahead of a tough away encounter in Serowe.

The Brazilians have the likes of Malebogo Ntebogang and Mokgathi Mokgathi in their line-up, as well as the experienced defensive pairing of Kabo ‘Branco’ Molokwane and Kenny ‘Shoes’ Ledikwe.   Confident in their own way, Fighters usually sit back and allow their opponents more territory only to strike when least expected.
