During the prize presentation, all eyes will be on the player of the series award where the winner will take home a lucrative E15 000. The top goalscorer award will be awarded to Moneni Pirates striker Mfanfikile ‘Fash’ Ndzimandze who will earn E10 000 after scoring seven goals in the tournament despite his club being knocked out in the quarter-finals.

Mbabane Swallows host Orapa United on Saturday in the second leg match having won 1-0 away in Francistown, Botswana in the CAF Total Confederations Cup.
