Sundowns, Tigers in key clash

PE Sundowns and Roaring Tigers clash in a crucial SafaNMB SAB League soccer match at the Chevrolet Stadium on Saturday.

With a match in hand, Sundowns have a two-point lead over Tigers at the top of the log.

Victory will put Tigers level on points but they will trail on goal difference.

Madibaz, who are fourth, could become the new logleaders with maximum points from their double-header.

The students should have an easy match against School of Excellence at the south campus on Friday, but will face a tougher challenge against Bush Bucks at the Chevrolet Stadium on Sunday.

Bucks face a difficult match against Golden Aces. Aces are two points ahead of Bucks.

Early log-leaders Camper United, who are well placed to challenge the front-runners, play FC Winners in Mawab Dyubhele. Camper are just three points behind Sundowns.
