The LFA committee is now under pressure to complete the league by the national deadline which has been set for the end of February.
The LFA are slightly behind deadline as they should have already completed the first round of the fixtures which only got under way this week.
LFA secretary, Thandazile Madinda said they "will still try and meet the end of February deadline, by playing matches during the week." If they still do not meet the deadline date, Madinda said the committee will ask for an extension.
Matches will again take place this weekend, at the JD Dlepu Stadium from 9am on Saturday and on Sunday.
