You can say today is a big day for football lovers and fans in Tanzania when the traditional rivals Simba and Yanga will compete in the NBC Premier League game that will be played from 11 pm
When you talk about the biggest football match in Tanzania, then another question is this Kariakoo Derby that brings together teams with historical opposition
Even though the result of today's game cannot decide the fate of the championship of the major league this season, but the team that emerges victorious today will be at the top of the competition between the teams this season
Simba is in third place in the league standings with 13 points while Yanga is in fifth place with 12 points also with one game in hand
Yanga goes into the game with a record against their countrymen, having won three consecutive matches between the teams in all competitions
Last season the Citizens came out on top in both league matches against their hometown team winning 5-1 and 2-1 and also winning 1-0 in August in the Community Shield semi-final
It is clear today that Simba will go to the Mkapa tournament with only one mission, to finish the campaign and bring back their spirit in competing for the premier league title this season
Coach Fadlu Davids' boys have started the season well, winning four league matches and one draw
But of course today they will need to be at their best to be able to leave with all three points against Yanga, who have established themselves as the best team in Tanzania at the moment
The match will be played at 5 pm
