KUMUL Petroleum National Soccer League defending champions Lae City will look to keep pace with ladder leaders Hekari United when they host Kutubu at the Sir Ignatius Kilage Stadium tomorrow.
After missing out on the Oceania Football Confederation Champions League top-eight last week, Peter Gunemba’s men will be looking for a win against the visitors.
The second game of the triple-header will see Morobe Wawens taking on Gulf Komara which should be a good game to watch as the visitors will want to add three points to their tally to stay in the race.
But it will not be an easy task for Komara as the Wawens also want a win.
After losing to the Stallions last time out, the Wawens will be out to give their best.
Wawens owner Andrew Namuesh said he was confident of securing a win.
The main fixture of the triple-header will be between Morobe United and Bougainville.
Morobe United coach Samson Steven will be banking on the services of Emmanuel Simongi, Bruce Tiampo and Oberth Simon to get their side home against David Passam’s men.
