Rezlife has a 25-3 record (the best) and will play either Tropical Royals, Miracle Eagles or Entebbe Knight Riders in the quarter-finals.

They will travel to Gulu to play the Gulu Hawks on 16th November.

Watoto has a 12-17 record and they are praying for the Diamonds in the Sun not to have positive results.

If Diamonds wins all their remaining games and Watoto wins their final game against Sommet, both teams will be tied at 13 wins and Diamonds survives because they own the tiebreaker.

If Watoto lose their final game and Diamonds wins atleast 2 of their last 3 games, Diamonds will still survive and Watoto will get relegated.

The prayer for Watoto is that they win their last game and Diamonds lose atleast one of their game.

If Watoto loses their last game, their  prayer will be for Diamonds to lose at least 2 of their last 3 games.
