Current log leaders Ramblers will face third placed Tigers on Wednesday evening in round four of the Namibia Premier League (NPL) at the Sam Nujoma Stadium at 20h00.
Ramblers are on top with seven points after winning two and drawing one match so far this season.
In their first two matches in the 2010/11 season Ramblers beat Blue Boys 3-0 and Blue Waters 1-0 at the coast.
They were however held to a goalless draw by SKW last week in a match that was fraught with lots of missed opportunities.
