Struggling Hwange will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Black Rhinos in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
It's no vacation for neither Hwange nor Black Rhinos as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
