An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 17th place.
It's no vacation for neither Mufulira Wanderers nor Kabwe YSA as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Mufulira Wanderers form and stats
Mufulira Wanderers have played three Super League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season.

Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
Mufulira Wanderers drew their last game, 0-0 away at Nkwazi (placed 12th). Prior to that, an away loss at ZESCO United.

Kabwe YSA form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Super League for Kabwe YSA with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Kabwe YSA have lost on their last two travels.
