“The 2021/22 Castle Lager Premier Soccer League season is set to commence on Saturday November 6, 2021. The league will break in December for the holidays and resume in February 2022 after the Africa Cup of Nations matches. The PSL urges clubs and all stakeholders to strictly adhere to COVID-19 protocols to ensure that our stadia remain safe during this pandemic,” PSL spokesperson Kudzai Bare said.
Match Day 2 sees another humdinger in the offing with FC Platinum entertaining Chicken Inn while Highlanders host Ngezi Platinum Stars as Dynamos visit Triangle.
Caps United face their first Harare derby with a match against Harare City.
Dynamos and FC Platinum lock horns in Match Day 4, while Caps United will play host to Ngezi Platinum, probably the major highlights of that week.
Castle Lager Premier Soccer League football returns after a two-year absence due to COVID-19.
Clubs have been participating in the Chibuku Super Cup tournament which reaches quarter-finals stage today with all four matches taking place at the Baobab Stadium in Mhondoro-Ngezi.
PSL has not yet confirmed which stadia will be able to host league matches but the National Sports Stadium, Mandava Stadium, Barbourfields, Baobab and Sakubva are well set to be among those that have been approved.
