The NBC Mainland Premier League continues today, with defending champions Yanga taking to the pitch at KMC Complex to face Mashujaa FC.
The Round 9 encounter comes at a time when the Wananchi need a victory to restore their morale as they battle to defend the league title for a sixth consecutive season.
Yanga can no longer afford to drop points after failing to win their last two league matches.
Those results led to the dismissal of head coach Manqoba Mngqithi, with assistant coach Simo Dladla now entrusted with leading the Yanga squad in this match.
Dladla said today that his team need to win, urging his players to fight hard and give their all to bring joy to their supporters.
He said Yanga should be the number one team and must demonstrate their stature today by winning the match while also playing attractive football.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 6:30 p.m.
