SIMFUKWE, VAN ROYEN IN MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH

MBABANE – Every soccer fanatic locally is now anxious to know who will join RSSC United on the path to the MTN National First Division League next season – what we all know is whoever joins RSSC will be Moneni Pirates or Manzini Sea Birds who clash in a head-to-head hub derby and relegation decider.

This is undoubtedly the biggest fixture this weekend as the league comes to a close with Royal Leopard champions-in-waiting pending a boardroom decision expected to be made tomorrow.
The relegation battle will be played on Saturday at Somhlolo National Stadium at 2pm before another third-place decider between Mbabane Highlanders and Green Mamba at 4pm.
