Sefothafotha, Swallows, Linare, Liphakoe and FC Likhopo have not registered a single victory after the two opening league matches and are languishing at the bottom half of the log table, and the only difference is the goals conceded.
The Premier League which is now being sponsored by Vodacom Lesotho to the tune of M8.5 million in the next three seasons, will see the eventual league winners walk away with M550 000, which is only M50 000 more than what Bantu received when they were crowned the 2019/20 champs.
