The Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League is heating up, and at the summit, MWOS FC continues to defy gravity, sitting pretty at the top with an unbeaten record—8 wins, 6 draws, and zero defeats from 14 games. With 30 points in the bag, they’re setting the pace, but the chasing pack is breathing down their necks.
Defending champions Simba Bhora are holding firm in second place, but the four-point gap between them and MWOS means they’ll need a slip-up from the leaders if they’re to reclaim their throne. Meanwhile, Scottland FC lurk dangerously in third with 23 points, but with a pending verdict on their abandoned clash against Chicken Inn, they could be primed to close the gap even further.
The surprise package of the season? ZPC Kariba—quietly but efficiently climbing to fourth with 22 points, matching the “Students” of Herentals FC, who sit fifth on goal difference. The battle for the top four is razor-thin, with TelOne FC and Ngezi Platinum Stars both locked on 21 points, separated only by fine margins.
But here’s the twist—FC Platinum, the league’s ultimate draw specialists, remain unbeaten (just like MWOS), with a staggering 11 draws from 14 games! Three wins, 11 stalemates—teams just can’t seem to crack them, but can they turn those single points into three to mount a serious charge?
Further down, the Bulawayo giants Highlanders and Manica Diamonds are level on points, but neither has truly hit their stride this campaign. Green Fuel, sitting uncomfortably in 11th, remain a fortress at home—still unbeaten on their own turf—but their away woes are holding them back.
At the wrong end of the table, the crisis deepens for Zimbabwean football royalty. Caps United, one half of Harare’s footballing aristocracy, are languishing in 14th—just three wins all season. Yadah FC are nipping at their heels, while the once-mighty Dynamos are in freefall, stranded in 16th with a measly 10 points from 14 games. For a club of their stature, this is nothing short of a catastrophe.
The newly promoted sides, Triangle United and Kwekwe United, are finding life in the top flight brutal, propping up the table with 9 and 8 points, respectively. The relegation dogfight is well and truly on, and unless they find a spark soon, the drop will be inevitable.
The Verdict? MWOS FC are the team to catch, but with Simba Bhora lurking and Scottland waiting in the wings, the title race is far from over. At the bottom, Dynamos and Caps United are in a nightmare—can they claw their way out, or is this the season their demons finally consume them?
One thing’s for sure—the Zimbabwe PSL never fails to deliver drama! ⚽🔥
