Satmos play GU on Saturday while Nico face Gunners on Sunday in games that have an impact of who will finish in the top five.
Nico spokesperson, Kgakgamatso Moreri said his team is ready for action, though some players are carrying knocks. “It is not all about battling for a position with Satmos, but our main aim is to finish in the Top 8. We just want to finish in a better position,” he said.
Majomobolo lost key players in Bonolo Fraiser and Master Masitara who were the main goal scorers. They also lost Gift Moyo who is studying in South Africa.
“All in all, we lost a third of the team and rebuilding is naturally a challenge,” Moreri said.
Team captain, Richard Legwaila and Nelson Moreetsi are likely to miss the Sunday clash due to injuries.
Satmos on the other hand are more than determined to finish at the highest possible position after returning to the top flight. Coach Kgositesile Jacob said after playing against Mochudi Centre Chiefs last weekend, they looked at the log standing and realised that it required them to win the last game at all costs to retain their fifth position.
“The players are in high spirits and if we can retain the momentum, then I promise that it will be a marvelous game to watch,” he said. The team’s goalkeeper Kagiso Tshelametsi who had a colourful career with the Zebras, will be available after suspension.
