…As leaders Lusaka Dynamos host Nkana
By MICHAEL MIYOBA
THE MTN/FAZ Super division returns to action this afternoon with defending champions Zanaco seeking to reclaim the summit of the league table when they take on second-placed NAPSA Stars in a week 11 league fixture to be played at Sunset Stadium in Lusaka.
Zanaco will seek to collect maximum points after their disappointing goalless draws in their last two league fixtures.
The Numba Mumamba boys went on to record a 0-0 draw with Zesco in their last fixture and recorded the same score line in a week 8 fixture against Nkana Football club.
Meanwhile, Napsa Stars will seek to maintain their perfect position on the league table as they occupy second position with 17 points on par with leaders Lusaka Dynamos who have a better goal difference.
Napsa head coach Tenant Chilumba said his team would prepare adequately for their week eleven MTN/FAZ Super division fixture against Zanaco.
Speaking during an interview after Napsa’s last Sunday’s barren draw against Red Arrows, Chilumba said his squad would be ready for the Zanaco side that walloped Cameroons Cotton Sport 2-1 in Saturdays CAF Champions’ league group D fixture played at the National Heroes Stadium.
“We host Zanaco and we are ready for them and the advantage is that we will have a full squad against the league’s defending champions,” Chilumba said.
Meanwhile, league leaders Lusaka Dynamos will seek to collect maximum points in their quest to maintain their top position on the table when they host 12 times league champions Nkana football club at National Heroes Stadium.
With only a point separating the two teams, the fixture is anticipated to be a tough game with both teams anxiously searching for maximum three points.
