MIRACLE battles to avoid elimination from the MTN basketball league play-off race when they meet champions Falcons at the YMCA courts today.

With five games remaining, seventh-placed Miracle trails leaders Falcons by one game in the Yello Max Conference.

A loss for Miracle today, would diminish their hopes of making their first ever play-off appearance as Falcons have the tie-breaker advantage.

Falcons go into this game with two advantages; a first round 69-52 score over Miracle, and the team’s consistent form since the second round started.

Falcons opened their second round campaign powerfully with a 69-63 defeat of fancied Charging Rhino.
