Simba SC secured their fifth consecutive league win to move four points ahead of Young Africans in the NBC Premier League.
Since dropping points to Coastal Union and the Kariakoo Derby defeat, Davids has turned things around and has led his side to some supreme form.
Leonal Ateba scored the only goal of the game in their 1-0 win over Pamba Jijj on Friday afternoon to pile pressure on Young Africans, who recently parted ways with head coach Miguel Gamondi and replaced him with former TS Galaxy coach Sead Ramovic.
They are now four points ahead of Yanga, who have a game in hand due to their top-of-the-table clash with Singida being postponed for their preparation of Al Hilal in their CAF Champions League group stage opener next week.
Davids’ side also enter inter-club football soon, with the CAF Confederation Cup, where they host Girabola side Bravos de Marquis on Wednesday in Dar es Salaam.
