Mbao hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 23 points and a 19th position in the Ligi kuu Bara table. Visiting Polisi Tanzania holds 7th place with 45 pts.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
