Two Zimbabwean giants, Highlanders and CAPS United, are set to clash in a low-key Battle of the Cities at Babourfields Stadium this Sunday. Both teams have been struggling for form and goals this season, but they are determined to get back to winning ways.
Highlanders are currently winless in six matches, and they will be looking to rekindle the old Bosso spirit when they take on their rivals. They will be without suspended defender Peter Muduhwa, but head coach, Baltemar Brito is confident that his team has what it takes to win.
CAPS United, on the other hand, have rediscovered their form in recent weeks, winning three and drawing one of their last four league matches. However, they suffered a morale-shattering defeat in the Chibuku Super Cup semi-final against Dynamos last weekend.
Head coach Lloyd Chitembwe believes that his team still has something to fight for, and he is confident that they can beat Highlanders. He has called on his players to show attitude and talent in the game, and he is confident that they can come away with a victory.
The two teams met in July for the first edition of the battle of the cities, and Highlanders emerged victorious with a 2-1 scoreline. It is sure to be a closely-fought contest this time around, and both teams will be desperate to win.
