This could be an interesting match as Highlanders have their presumed home advantage while Black Rhinos are ahead 10 points in the Premier Soccer League table.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Premier Soccer League. Thankfully the previous game, versus Chapungu United, was also a home game here at Barbourfields Stadium. The away team is better rested. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Chapungu United.
