Samaria faces Mbakera test

The 2018/19 MTC Namibia Premier League (NPL) continues this weekend when Tigers step up to face African Stars at the Sam Nujoma Stadium tonight at 20:00.

Tigers, coached by Mervin Mbakera, will face the defending NPL champions, coached by Bobby Samaria.

Stars have a lot of work to do after losing 0-2 to Unam on Wednesday night.

The team failed to capitalise on their chances, with Samaria saying Stars had performed better in their CAF Champions League preliminary against South Africa's Orlando Pirates and in their recent narrow defeat to Morocco's Raja Casablanca.

He, however, seems unbothered by Wednesday's display and said they have their eyes set on winning tonight.

“We need the supporters to lift the team, the boys need you the most,” he said.

Tigers, who are currently seventh on log, compared to Stars 11th place, are hoping to secure maximum points.

In other weekend fixtures Okahandja United will face Blue Waters on the home-ground at 16:00, while Julinho Sporting will cross swords with Mighty Gunners at the same time at the Rundu Sport Stadium.
