In today’s crackers, the Division  Two giants, Brikama United, will lock horns with Africell-Sait Matty FC at the Serrekunda West Mini-stadium, while Bakau United and First Division newcomers, Samger, will square-up against each other in their Group B opener at the Serrekunda East Mini-stadium.

On Thursday, Steve Biko will take on SK East United at the East Mini-stadium, while Ham Ham face Tallinding United at the Serrekunda West Mini-stadium on the same day.
