Yanga face Simba in Dar battle
The mother of all derbies in Tanzania is on when Yanga take on champions and archrivals Simba at the National Stadium on Wednesday live on SuperSport.
Besides the points, bragging rights for both sets of feverish supporters is at stake in addition to the complexion of the title race in one of the most riveting derbies anywhere in the world
Yanga go into the match with dented egos after a 5-0 drubbing by Simba in May and will be looking to give their opponents a taste of their own medicine in what will be coach Ernie Brandts’ first match in charge since joining from Rwandese side APR.
Rwandese international Haruna Niyonzima, is expected to be at the heart of their attacking intent as the supply line to the striking duo of Hamis Kiiza and Congolese national Didier Kavumbaga with Said Bahanuzi lined up as the reinforcement on the bench.
Simba on the other hand have a perfect start to their title defence and will be hoping to continue with their scintillating run.
Coach Milovan Cirkovic has many options to choose from but will probably rely on the effectiveness of his captain and long serving keeper Juma Kaseja while flamboyant striker Mrisho Ngasa is expected to lead the attack.
For the fans, another chapter of the encounter that brings the nation to a standstill is on the cards and those who cannot make the National Stadium can turn to SuperSport 9 East to catch all the drama.
