The feature clash on Saturday will see Grove Hi Tech, 4-1 winners over Agricola Red Triangle also on June 4th last taking on Herstelling Raiders from midday.
On Sunday, Agricola Red Triangle would be aiming to notch their first win of the competition when they engage Yarrowkabra Jaguars, the newest club on the East Bank but have already showed they are up to the task of competing with a come from behind 3-3 draw with fellow Linden Soesdyke Highway side, Kuru Kururu Warriors on June 5th last.
The main attraction from 12:00hrs will see Mocha Champs matching skills with Kuru Kururu Warriors in what is anticipated to be a keen contest.
