New Comers to struggle
Last season, the relegation battle was as interesting as the fight for the title, with no less than eight teams in danger of slipping down quite late into the season. This season too is set to be as exciting, with very little separating some of the teams at the bottom of the table from each other.
The newly promoted clubs, New Monze Swallows, National Assembly and Kabwe Youth Soccer Academy should expect a tough welcome. With no real standout talent in their teams and no significant additions in the transfer window, they will most likely find it hard to survive.
Their best hope of survival will eventually be Kitwe United, Green Eagles, and Nchanga Rangers doing as badly as last time. That situation, though, is not entirely out of question as none of these clubs has done anything significant during the window to suggest otherwise.
The fans of these clubs should brace themselves for a nerve-wracking season although there is still time for things to change in the last three weeks of the transfer window.
However, as things stand at the moment, the teams projected to go down are National Assembly, New Monze Swallows and Kabwe Youth Soccer Academy.
Interesting Season to look out for
