Fighters lead the way after their home fixtures yielded six points, four goals and two clean sheets.
The Otjiwarongo outfit trounced Black Africa (BA) 3-0 on Saturday, and followed that up with a 1-0 success over Young African (YA) yesterday at Mokati Stadium.
Likewise, Julinho won their season openers at Rundu Stadium, beating YA on Saturday, and BA the day after by 2-1 score lines.
The results were not surprising, given that BA and YA only began training for the chaotic start to the league last week.
Julinho and Fighters have nearly a full month’s preparation behind them.
Blue Waters were the only home team not to record a victory over the weekend.
They were held goalless by Eleven Arrows in the coastal derby played at Walvis Bay’s Jan Wilkens Stadium on Saturday.
Also getting their season off to a winning start were southerners Young Brazilian with a narrow 1-0 victory over Tura Magic at Karasburg Stadium, and Okahandja United enjoyed a 2-1 home success against Mighty Gunners.
This weekend, Civics, Orlando Pirates, Tigers and Citizens belatedly get their campaigns underway, having come to a “compromise” with the Namibia Football Association.
On Saturday, Arrows host Citizens; Blue Waters are at home to Civics; Pirates entertain Okahandja United; as Tigers welcome Mighty Gunners.
