Elite league returnees, Prisons XI, and Matebele FC are living dangerously early on, as the FNB Premiership entered its third week over the weekend.

Matebele are currently sitting at the bottom of the league table after three games and are yet to record a single point. To make situation worse, out of three matches played so far, they are yet to score a single goal. The team has also conceded three goals thus far. On Saturday, they suffered a 1-0 defeat to new comers, Enesia in Francistown. Once a relatively decent side in the elite league, Matebele now face the dangers of fighting relegation early on the in the season.

At the end of last season, they were reportedly offering their status in exchange for money but the negotiations with potential suitors allegedly did not materialise. They are now facing a daunting task of recovering for an early season slump.
