Green Buffaloes are looking to continue their fine run against Nkana in the super league in recent years but could still be without their captain Adrian Chama who is still on the treating table. Other players out injured are Malani Gondwe, happy Kaunda and long term absantee Aubrey Chellah who has a broken leg. Kabamba Steven and Moonga Chilimba should start this one with Eddie Sinyangwe and Friday Samu as sure starters.
This is a tricky one because you have two teams that have been playing good football and separated only by two points with Nkana still a game less. I saw Nkana play Kabwe Warriors the other week and they were by far the team playing better football especially in the second half after Warriors did their share in the first half, but they are really missing good play in the midfield. I know they would like to ease that pressure but they need good presence in the midfield.
Green Buffaloes have 8 wins in the last 17 games against Nkana and with the Kitwe outfit getting 7 wins and only two draws recorded. Nkana last beat Green Buffaloes in 2015 but they are too close and this is the best chance of stopping that poor run. But the poor run will still affect Nkana and will get a draw in this one.
My Prediction: Nkana 1-1 Green Buffaloes
