The stage is set for an electrifying Chibuku Super Cup final on Saturday as Triangle United and Dynamos — two sides with flawless records in the competition’s showpiece — square off in what promises to be a gripping battle at Gibbo Stadium.
Triangle United arrive in the final in blistering form, having swept aside every opponent in their path, and remarkably, doing it all away from home. Their journey began in the preliminary round against Kwekwe, and since then they have toppled some of the league’s toughest outfits. Ngezi Platinum were dispatched, followed by Manica Diamonds, before Triangle produced one of the tournament’s standout results — a superb 2–0 win over high-flying MWOS FC.
This impressive run speaks to Triangle’s resilience, tactical discipline, and ability to thrive under pressure, especially away from familiar surroundings. Now, with the final being played at Gibbo — their fortress — they step into Saturday’s clash with confidence and a flawless finals record to protect. Triangle have never lost a final on home soil, and they will be determined to ensure that proud statistic remains intact.
Dynamos, however, bring their own aura of inevitability. The Glamour Boys have carved a unique identity in this competition — one built on grit, endurance, and mastery from the penalty spot. Their road to the final has also come through the preliminary phases, navigating past Yadah, Simba Bhora, ZPC Kariba, and Highlanders. Yet what sets their journey apart is their extraordinary run of penalty shoot-out victories. Since last year’s edition, Dynamos have won eight consecutive cup matches via penalties — a streak that defies logic and has given them a psychological edge few teams can match.
With three Chibuku Super Cups to their name, Dynamos know how to win on the big stage. Triangle, meanwhile, have lifted the trophy once before and are chasing a second triumph — all while maintaining their flawless finals record.
Saturday’s showdown is perfectly balanced: Triangle will aim to finish the job within 90 minutes — as they have done in three of their four matches — while Dynamos will not shy away from stretching the duel to penalties, where they remain virtually unstoppable.
Final Prediction: Triangle United 1–1 Dynamos
Dynamos win 4–3 on penalties.
