Not a bad way to open the season for Napsa Stars, cruising to a comfortable victory against Nkwazi while still giving Muhammad Fathi plenty of things to correct going forward.

Napsa’s run towards the end of the season form last year was almost impeccable, winning as many games to survive and there is no reason to think this season will produce any different results.

Nkana also ended the season on a high and going as many games without defeat to finish second. So its a game of two teams that were excellent at the end of the season and they have not started bad either. Nkana drawing away to in Lumwana and Napsa beating Nkwazi to start the season.

With this match not having dead rubber status, expect Nkana to give their opponents plenty of respect and put in a professional display.

Nkana have no choice but to go for this one while trying as much as possible to make changes with a tricky schedule ahead of them.

Straight from defeat at the hands of ZESCO United they will think this will be a fast response of getting back to winning ways but its not an easy game. Fathi has put up a very positive charging team which is believing in themselves too much and Nkana should be careful. We could have an upset here.

Mathews Salavwe and Bornwell Mwape goes back home and not knowing their loan conditions , it will be nice to see them play in this one.

Bestone will have selection challenges and he could also decide to throw in Chisamba Lungu after the weekend debacle. He needs him more this time around. But all this gives Napsa Stars and advantage and they will shock Nkana here.

My Predication: Nkana 1-2 Napsa Stars
