The NBC Premier League continues today as Simba take on TRA United in Arusha in a match expected to be highly competitive.
This rescheduled fixture was initially set to be played last month but was postponed due to heavy rains that left the Sheikh Amri Abeid Stadium waterlogged.
It will be another challenging 90 minutes away from home, with TRA United having shown strong form in matches played at Sheikh Amri Abeid Stadium.
Simba head coach Steve Barker has made it clear that his team’s objective going into the match is to secure all three important away points.
After dropping two points in their previous match against Azam FC, Simba can no longer afford any slip-ups, as anything less than a win could disrupt their title ambitions early.
Simba arrived in Arusha two days ago with a full squad, and there is a possibility that players who missed recent matches, Inno Loemba and Elie Mpanzu, could return to the lineup.
Loemba had been sidelined due to injury, while Mpanzu was ill shortly before the match against Coastal Union, causing him to miss the last two games.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 10:00 PM.
