With the DStv Premiership fixtures underway this weekend, Babina Noko is confident that the momentum and form of January will be maintained.
Babina Noko will kick off the Saturday afternoon fixture against Richards Bay at The New Peter Mokaba Stadium, with the view of attaining maximum points.
The boys will look to impress Head Coach Brandon Truter, who demands excellence in every game.
