It’s first versus second, a clash between title contenders and title holders as Real Sapphire host Beyond Limits.

The hosts are still a fair distance away from a first-ever TCC League title. But their impressive season so far has brought them this close. Still unbeaten, and the team with the most clean sheets this season, Coach Dan’s behemoth can take a step closer to glory with victory over Beyond Limits.

But Coach Olumide’s side will not relinquish their hold on the title so easily. They’ve chased hard for the most part of the year. Catching up and overtaking Real Sapphire is the objective. And a win in this game will push them closer to achieving that goal.

Both sides however must rewrite history if they’re to pick maximum points from this clash. Why? The last three TCC League meetings between both sides have ended in a draw. Will this be a fourth in a row or a hard-fought victory for either side?
