Africa-Press – Eswatini. Yesterday afternoon, Tambankulu Stadium will burst into life as it plays host to a pending MTN Premier League match between Ezulwini United and Denver Sundowns.
The action is set to kick off at 3pm in the Lubombo region. These two teams are set to clash in a relegation six-pointer, with both aiming to improve their standings on the league table to start breathing again. The match will have significant implications, as the victorious team will climb while the losing side will sink further into the relegation zone. Currently, both teams find themselves in precarious positions in the 14-team league, with United occupying the 12th spot and Sundowns just one place above the bottom of the log. The Mpumelelo Ngwenya-led charges’ recent success in reaching the Ingwenyama Cup quarter-finals, following a penalty shootout victory over Seven Dreams, has provided them with momentum heading into this league clash.

Conversely, Sundowns, led by Milton Dlamini, are eager to not only improve their position on the log standings, but also to bounce back from their elimination in the Ingwenyama Cup last 16, where they suffered a 0-2 defeat to Nsingizini Hotspurs. Ezulwini will look to their top scorer in the Ingwenyama Cup, Mpucuko Dlamini, who has netted five goals, to lead them to victory, while the ‘Kappa Boys’ will pin their hopes on the influential playmaker, Mthokosizi ‘General’ Hlatshwako, to inspire them to a much-needed win, having endured a winless streak of eight games.
