Napsa Stars Vs Nakambala Leopards
Sunset Stadium
15:00hrs
This time last year Nakambala Leopards were struggling to stay up by the skin of their teeth and it would have taken a pretty radical thinker to suggest they would somehow follow that up by making it into the super league, thanks to the expanding of the league to 20 teams.
They are not that bad this season, thanks to the good team spirit, they have looked very good in some games and for me their best win was that away victory against Green Buffaloes and a draw at Lusaka Dynamos at Sunset. A watertight defense, an industrious midfield and a team that gelled admirably playing slick, incisive football, will be very disappointing if they are to get relegated again this season.
Napsa Stars will be hoping to improve their position but Nakambala are going for a win to survive. Such games are tense and I think a draw is eminent.

Prediction: Napsa Stars 0-0 Nakambala Leopards
