Bombay face a daunting task heading to Karaka Sports Complex looking to beat a side that has only lost once in the past 13 months on Good Friday.

Karaka has started the season with two wins from two and are coming off a season in which the only game they lost all season was the grand final.

But Bombay coach Mike Tuiloma is relishing the challenge of taking on a top side.

“Another tough game, Karaka the big red machine,” Tuiloma said. 

“For me and my boys, we just need to complete phases, win moments and have fun. 

“Karaka will be physical, but we are always up for the challenge.” 

Patumahoe hosts Ardmore Marist at Patumahoe Domain on Saturday while Pukekohe meets Papakura at Colin Lawrie Fields.

The Bob Chandler Cup Premier 2 competition sees the same sides face each other in the only other fixtures over the Easter Weekend.
