The fixtures for the Sapitwa 4 Season 4 pre-season tournament have been confirmed, with Ekhaya FC set to open this year’s competition against Red Lions on Saturday afternoon at Mulanje Park.
The match marks the official kickoff of the two-day tournament and brings together a side preparing for its second season in the top flight and a Red Lions team fighting to re-establish itself after being relegated two seasons ago. With their return to elite football on the horizon, Red Lions are expected to provide a spirited challenge in the opening tie.
Later on Saturday afternoon, the reigning Super League of Malawi champions Mighty Wanderers FC will take on last season’s Castel Challenge Cup finalists, Goshen City Dedza Dynamos, in the second semi-final. Both teams enter the competition with strong ambitions and will be looking to set the right momentum ahead of the new campaign.
Winners from Saturday’s matches will progress to the final on Sunday, while the two losing sides will meet in the third-place play-off. The stage is now set for an exciting and competitive weekend of football at Mulanje Park as all four teams gear up for the upcoming season.
