The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Harare City are in the 12th position while the guests worry at 14th.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Harare City can neither be promoted or relegated from Premier Soccer League. For TelOne most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.
