The Galaxy Stadium turf will turn into a battle on Saturday as two sides expected to challenge for the league honours, Jwaneng Galaxy and Township Rollers come face-to-face.

Reigning champions, Jwaneng Galaxy, welcome the record league winners, Township Rollers in what is expected to be a thrilling contest. Galaxy have turned the Galaxy Stadium into a fortress since their promotion in 2015, as teams do not enjoy the trip to the diamond mining town.

Rollers, however, have been the most successful visiting team at the venue with three wins against their weekend's opponents. The Galaxy Stars are recovering from a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of rookies, Matebele FC, in the previous weekend. Tomorrow's tie against Rollers is now a must-win for Galaxy as they look to bring back their title quest on track.
