CASTLE Lager Premier Soccer League dark horses How Mine entertain FC Platinum at Luveve Stadium on Sunday with one eye on the top spot should any of the leaders falter.
SPORTS REPORTER
After losing the first two matches, How Mine have not lost in nine games, winning six times and playing three draws and with that feat, the gold miners sit on position three on the log table with 21 points at par with second-placed Highlanders.
Depending on the results of the weekend matches, How Mine could be reclaiming the top spot.
Assistant coach Simba Rusike yesterday said: “We don’t want to talk too much, but we will take each game as it comes. We are raring to go and we are injury-free.”
How Mine boast of top goal scorer Kuda Musharu and have relatively one of the strongest and experienced squads in the league.
How Mine beat Buffaloes 2-1 in their last game at Sakubva Stadium while Lloyd Mutasa’s FC Platinum were held to a 1-1 draw by Black Rhinos at Mandava.
FC Platinum have the likes of Marshall Mudehwe, Donald Ngoma and Mitchelle Katsvairo who could carry the day for the Zvishavane-based outfit with their captain Thabani Kamusoko also in top gear, although their problem is inconsistency.
