THE Castle Lager Premier Soccer League race enters round seven and potential blockbuster ties have proved to be coming thick and fast much to the excitement of hordes of local football followers.
Never mind that the Week Five league tie between Highlanders and Dynamos which was scheduled for Barbourfields Stadium was shelved to allow the two clubs to fully concentrate on their Independence Cup grand finale won by the former, the fans have continuously been kept on the edges of their seats.
Bulawayo derby ties between Highlanders and Chicken Inn and the one that featured Gamecocks and Bulawayo Chiefs lived up to expectations. As if that was not enough, the game between Caps United and defending champions FC Platinum, which ended one all, was reportedly a thriller.
Fast forward to this weekend, second-placed Bosso will have a date with equally red-hot Hwange in a match that will be played on Sunday at Emagumeni.
After edging struggling Cranborne Bullets 1-0, Nation Dube-coached Hwange are now on position five with 10 points.
Bulawayo football giants, Highlanders are coming from a 2-0 victory over Miracle Boys, Yadah FC which took their points tally to 11, one behind log leaders Caps United.
Makepekepe are due to meet seventh-placed Dynamos in a Harare derby tie that is expected to attract a full house at the giant National Sports Stadium.
On Saturday, Luveve Stadium will be the venue for the game between Bulawayo Chiefs and bruised Yadah while Chicken Inn do battle against Triangle at Gibbo Stadium.
