Mufulira Wanderers are welcoming Nkwazi for another important game after their 3-0 result against 9th-placed Red Arrows.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Mufulira Wanderers form and stats
With 1 Super League win, 3 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Mufulira Wanderers are certainly not brimming with confidence. Mufulira Wanderers are slowly digging their own grave here at Shinde Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Kabwe YSA match.
There will be little rest for Wanderers after this match as they are travelling to Kabwe YSA for a Super League game in only three days.
The lack of attacking qualities in Wanderers means that they have only scored 4 goals in 12 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Mufulira Wanderers have conceded 16 in these home matches.
Nkwazi form and stats
There's been little loot from Nkwazi's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 13 away games in the Super League. Nkwazi only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 8 draws. Two points from the last two away games for Nkwazi, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
M. Pride was the last player to score for the away team. Nkwazi haven't scored a league goal in the last 320 minutes. Nkwazi have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper. It's been 234 minutes since they last conceded in Super League.
Nkwazi are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Zanaco (placed 10th).
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Kansanshi Dynamos in just two days.
Goals are few and far between in Nkwazi's away league games. Only 6 goals from 13 travels. It's not easy to score on Nkwazi as they have only conceded 10 goals from these away games.
