Last weekend, Herstelling turned back the challenge of Lower Soesdyke 2-0 and will be aiming for a win in their final group clash which will see them through to the next round, which will be the knockout round.
Swan will be no pushovers as they will seek to follow in the footsteps of their Soesdyke Linden Highway neighbours, Kuru Kururu which trounced Agricola last week. A hectic start of night three of action is anticipated.
The feature clash on Saturday night will see Group C play between Upper Soesdyke against Circuitville, the latter in a must win situation having lost their opening match to Group, 7-2. Upper Soesdyke in their first match will be going for a win as their final group game will be against the dangerous former East Bank #1 football village, Grove.
While Circuitville, seemingly might be on the ropes, they will be coming hard and will throw everything at the Upper Soesdyke lads in order remain in the race for a quarter final berth. Fans are in for a treat.
