The veteran trio of Felix Chindungwe, Canan Nkomo and Makhosi Ncube, is confident that former PSL club Hwange will bounce back to the country’s top flight league come next year.

Chipangano are currently leading the Zifa Southern Region Division One log standings with 43 points, five ahead of second-placed Tsholotsho FC.

“We are confident that we are going to win this campaign. We have been playing well, and we are very much happy that on Saturday we won our derby match against Makomo,” said Chindungwe who joined Hwange early this year after being dumped by Highlanders.

Nkomo and Ncube also expressed the same sentiments as they tipped their side to win the Southern Region championship.

Nkomo is a former Chicken Inn player and played for Tsholotsho FC last season while Ncube was with Bulawayo City.
