The Namibia Premier League encounter between Orlando Pirates and Life Fighters, originally postponed due to electricity challenges at the Independence Stadium, have now been rescheduled.

The match will kick off at 17:30 today at the same venue. Reliable sources from the Ministry of Sport, Youth, and National Service have confirmed that the electricity issue has been resolved.

It is, however, important to note that the stadium can only accommodate two matches per day. As a result, the original scheduling of games for this weekend will be affected.

The long wait for the return of top-flight league football in the country is over, after the Namibia Football Association's Normalisation Committee announced the opening fixtures of the Namibia Premier Football League on Wednesday.

As per the just-announced fixtures, there won't be any matches on Friday, the 4th of November as previously announced. The opening matches will only start on Saturday, the 5th of November at Walvisbay, Okahandja, Windhoek and Otjiwarongo.
