Simba will today take to the field at Jamhuri Stadium in Dodoma to face Dodoma Jiji in the continuation of the NBC Premier League.
The match, which was initially scheduled to kick off at 7:00 PM, has been pushed forward by 15 minutes to allow those observing the holy month of Ramadan time to break their fast.
Following a 2–0 victory over Tanzania Prisons in their previous match at the same venue, Simba return to the pitch seeking another vital three points.
Head coach Steve Barker previously made it clear that his team’s plan is to collect nine points from three matches. Today, they have the opportunity to complete the first third of that target ahead of their clash against rivals Yanga on March 1 in Zanzibar.
The encounter is expected to be tough, as Dodoma Jiji have built a reputation for being difficult to beat on their home ground.
For Simba, a win today would be a significant result as they prepare to face their arch-rivals Yanga in the upcoming fixture.
