Try Ncube faces his biggest test as Highlanders interim boss when they travel to face struggling Kwekwe United on Sunday. The new coach lost his first game 1-0 against league leaders MWOS last weekend. Ncube desperately needs three points to prove he can turn around the Bulawayo club's poor form. His team has been inconsistent all season and fans are getting restless. The match at Bata Stadium gives him a perfect chance to grab his first victory.
Kwekwe United looks like easy pickings for the visitors after a terrible campaign. The bottom club has managed just eight points from eighteen games and relegation looms large. President Phil Makekera quit his job citing family problems as the club falls apart. Players have been protesting about unpaid wages and even missed a fixture back in April. Their desperate situation makes them prime targets for Highlanders to finally win a game.
Ncube refuses to take anything for granted despite facing the weakest team in the league. He told reporters the squad stays focused on collecting maximum points from every match. The coach plans to bring in fresh attacking players and creative midfielders during the transfer window. Three key players remain sidelined with injuries heading into the crucial fixture. Other weekend matches include league leaders MWOS hosting Bikita Minerals on Saturday.
