With OFTA De Kribi already relegated to the Regional League and Victoria United holding a hefty lead at the top of the table, there is still one relegation spot to be confirmed in what promises to be an exciting season finale.
Except for the relegated OFTA, every other team in the ELITE TWO championship can still gain promotion to the ELITE ONE CHAMPIONSHIP, mathematically, at least.
For this reason, the midweek feast of MTN ELITE TWO football promises fireworks everywhere you look.
