The defending champions of the Sierra Leone Premier League, Bo Rangers, seem to be on the cusp of history.  

With 20 matches played, they have not lost a single match, and have won 14, scored 27 goals and conceded only eight, with 13 clean sheets. Their players have won 12 Man of The Match awards.

If they manage to avoid defeat in their remaining 14 matches of the season, they will be one of very few clubs – and the first since EE Lions in 2019 – to go a whole season unbeaten.
