I had made a call that it will be between BDF XI, Gaborone United, and Mochudi Centre Chiefs, tipping Magosi to win it. This was mainly based on their activity during the transfer window, in which I felt they added more firepower to their already potent side.
When the League went into recess in December, BDF XI was at the top of the table. Matebele made shrewd signings at the beginning of the season, to add on to the already established names at the club. The team is built around a solid backbone of Takudzwa Ndoro and Ndiapo Letsholathebe at the back, Patrick Motsepe and Boitumelo Mafoko in the midfield and a combination of Mokgathi Mokgathi and Saukani Zulu up front. They have a few prospects and have come to the party and shone through the first half of the season. It remains to be seen whether they can keep up the momentum, especially with the departure of coach Rasta Kgengwenyane who has been replaced with Elijah Chikwanda. They are strong contenders and will have to go through a major slump if they are to miss out on the Championship, or atleast take it to the wire. A couple of big name players have been linked with them this window, which is an indication of their intentions.
