As the Gaborone derby takes centre stage in the 2024-2025 FNB Premiership final day, keen eyes will be on the Security Systems and Flamengo Santos tie.

Systems are not going down without a fight, but will need nothing less than nine goals in the final league game in order to stand a chance of survival. As it stands, their survival chance hangs by a thread. They are currently sitting at position 14.

They have a 15-goal deficit as compared to the 13th placed BDF XI's six. Systems will need BDF XI to lose their final league game while they will need to win 9-0 in theirs. Although the mission appears impossible, what happened in the past weekend could be reason enough to believe that Systems might just pull a rabbit out of the hat and ensure survival. The Alarm Boys beat relegated Chadibe FC 7-1 in a league game played at Lobatse Sports Complex.
