It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the CAF Confederations Cup.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Kitwe United form and stats

With 0 Super League wins, 6 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Kitwe United, who have the fewest scored goals (6) in Super League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Kitwe who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 27 attempts. Their previous win was against Mufulira Wanderers, 723 days ago. Kitwe are slowly digging their own grave here at Arthur Davies Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in 17 attempts. The last victory here came in the Mufulira Wanderers match.

Stress levels are on the rise for Kitwe United's attacking players as they have now played 470 minutes without scoring in a league game. E. Lungu was their last goal scorer.

Kitwe has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 2 goals from 10 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Kitwe are not conceding a lot of goals here at Arthur Davies Stadium in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 9 from 10 matches.

Nkana form and stats

There's been little loot from Nkana's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 8 away games in the Super League. Nkana, who have the most conceded goals (30) in Super League, only have 2 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 0 draws.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager M. Chabinga when F. Tshimenga scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 55th minute.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Super League trip to Lumwana Radiants.

Nkana are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 8 away games. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Nkana manager M. Chabinga has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Nkana - Kitwe 2-0 played earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last three meetings): Kitwe won zero games, one match ended with a draw and Nkana has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: zero / three
