NKANA STALK BUFFALOES

AFTER suffering their worst Super Division defeat at the hands of Green Buffaloes, struggling Nkana host the soldiers today with only one aim which is to revenge the famous 5-0 bashing which saw their coach Manfred Chabinga trading punches with a diehard fan over the team’s poor showing.

The fan who failed to handle the agony of watching his idols being slaughtered by Buffaloes in a Week-4 fixture at Nkoloma Stadium will not be at Nkana Stadium to witness how “Kalampa” will redeem themselves as the match will be played behind closed doors.

Led by Kelvin Kaindu who replaced Chabinga Nkana, who are the defending champions, will also target victory to lift the team spirits ahead of Sunday’s CAF Confederations Cup fixture against Tanzanian outfit Namungo FC.

Nkana are winless in the last five games in all competitions where they have struggled with three CAF Confederations Cup defeats and two losses to Power Dynamos and Kabwe Warriors in the Super Division.

Rejuvenated by the signing of Tichaona Chipunza from Zimbabwe and Emmanuel Mbola, Nkana will hope their challenges in defence have been resolved.

The Kitwe giants are languishing in the relegation zone of the Super Division where they occupier 16th position with 20 points.

Despite being comforted with four games in hand, “Kalampa” will surely fight for a win over Buffaloes to escape the relegation zone.

The same prediction can be made on Buffaloes who also lack consistency having managed to get only one win, two draws and two losses in the last five games.

Buffaloes will target to complete a double over Nkana when the two teams face off at Nkana Stadium today to escalate to 12th on the Super Division table.
