Bantu get ready to welcome Nkana for something different than the ordinary league football: The CAF Champions League Preliminary Round leg 1 of 2.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Bantu form and stats
Bantu participated in CAF Champions League the last season, where they reached the 1st round and lost against Vita Club.Bantu have been very solid at home in the Premier League so far, with 28 points collected from 10 matches (9-1-0). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table. Bantu haven’t lost a league-game in 25 attempts regardless of arena, a great achievement. Their last loss was the fixture versus LMPS, 607 days ago. The Bantu fans aren't used to losing league-games here and will expect new points from this game. Bantu has played 25 games in a row here without a defeat.
Bantu are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (30 goals in 10 games). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only -1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Bantu have conceded only 6 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Nkana form and stats
Nkana was sent out of CAF Champions League in the 1st round last season, when Simba turned out to be too strong.Things could have gone better for Nkana in their Super League away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.
Nkana's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Zanaco that finished 1-1. It was a Super League defeat before that one as the away game against Green Buffaloes wasn't a success with a 0-5 loss.
Nkana are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only -1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Nkana have conceded 7 goals in these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
