As Simba Sc begins their hunt for the second round of the league, before inviting RS Berkane of Morocco to the rematch of the Confederations Cup Africa group stage, Simba Head Coach , Pablo Franco, said the task is to win the six points in the upcoming two matches against Biashara United and Dodoma Jiji
Simba returned to the Country on Tuesday after a two-matches in the Confederation Cup against USGN of Niger and RS Berkane of Morocco
Simba, who have four points equal to USGN with Berkane at the top with six points and Asec Mimosas trailing by three points, have become the first team in their Group D to get away points, as both teams have been winning only at home
Tomorrow at 7pm the Mainland Premier League giants will descend on Benjamin Mkapa Stadium to host Biashara United in their first game in this second round
Simba who are second in the league standings with 31, 11 points behind Yanga who have played one game ahead, after tomorrow's match, Monday will return to the field to host Dodoma Jiji FC.
Pablo said the strength and intelligence they are now focusing on in those two Premier League matches to ensure they get all six points before hosting RS Berkane on March 13, this year.
Pablo said he hopes the game will be tough especially given the quality of Biashara United, but it has also become common for small teams to compete when playing with big teams
"Biashara United is a good team, they have good players and when they play with a big team, they offers a lot of competition, but the main thing for us to make sure we get the victory and the beauty is that we will be at home," said Pablo
He said their goal is to make sure they win their matches to reduce the huge points gap from the league's leading team, Yanga in order to defend their title this season
