Nkana played 1-1 against Zanaco last week, a game to remember. Next up is this strong Buildcon side.

Insights:
  • Nkana have the most conceded goals (49) in Super League
  • Buildcon have the most points from losing position (15) in Super League

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Relegation threatens Nkana who should definitely be looking for some points here. Buildcon is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
