CASTLE Lager Premier Soccer League action resumes following the FIFA international break, with a packed midweek programme lined up for Thursday and Friday.
All eyes will be on Baobab Stadium where Ngezi Platinum Stars host log leaders CAPS United in a high-stakes encounter.
CAPS United coach Takesure Chiragwi is set for an emotional return to his former club, where he previously guided Ngezi to a league title. He will be aiming to preserve Makepekepe’s unbeaten run, but faces a stern test against his former assistant, Kumbirai Mutiwekuziva, now in charge at Ngezi.
Elsewhere, the midweek schedule is packed with crucial fixtures. Newcomers Hunters FC take on ZPC Kariba, while Triangle United, now under Lloyd Chitembwe, seek a turnaround against struggling Agama FC.
Hardrock FC host Herentals FC, while TelOne FC face defending champions Scottland FC at Ascot.
In other fixtures, Bulawayo Chiefs clash with Simba Bhora, Manica Diamonds host Chicken Inn FC, and Dynamos FC take on MWOS FC at Rufaro.
The round concludes on Friday with a blockbuster tie as Highlanders FC face former champions FC Platinum at Barbourfields Stadium.
