Sunday’s clash promises drama as form meets fragility.
Matchday 19 of the 2025 Premier Soccer League brings a fiery encounter as Scottland FC take on a resurgent CAPS United this Sunday. Traditionally a powerhouse in the league, Scottland have been struggling for form in recent weeks, winning just once in their last five games — a narrow 1-0 victory over Kwekwe United. Draws against Greenfuel and Triangle, coupled with a home loss to TelOne, have seen the giants clinging onto 4th place, though that position is increasingly under threat.
Their opponents, CAPS United, have turned around a poor start to the season in dramatic fashion. Moving from 15th to 11th in just three matchdays, the Green Machine have picked up three wins, one draw, and just one loss — a competitive 2-1 defeat to MWOS. Their recent form suggests a squad finding rhythm and confidence at the right time.
The build-up to this clash has been anything but quiet. A war of words has erupted across social media, with Scottland mockingly labelling CAPS as “cabbages”, while CAPS retaliated by calling Scottland “malnourished lions” — a clear jab at their recent downturn.
The last time these sides met in Matchday 2, Scottland emerged 2-0 victors. However, the dynamics have shifted. Scottland’s marquee signing of the week, Terrence Dzvukamanja, returning to the PSL after a six-year stint in South Africa, could be a boost — but it may be too soon for him to influence Sunday’s outcome.
With Scottland wobbling and CAPS on the rise, this fixture could swing the momentum further in favour of the visitors. An upset may be on the cards.
