AFTER picking maximum points without kicking a ball last weekend, Kitwe Bullets return to league action with a tie against Chipata Boys in a week-15 FAZ Premier Futsal League game at Automotive Indoor Futsal Arena.
Bullets will seek to complete a double over Chipata Boys who will be fighting to avenge the 5-2 defeat suffered when the two teams clashed in the first round fixture played last November.
Motivated by the 4-3 win over BS Stars in the previous fixture, Chipata Boys will fight for maximum points to increase their chances of qualifying for the knock out stage of the Premier Futsal League.
Meanwhile, Kabwe K-Line will seek to redeem themselves from last week’s defeat to defending champions Automotive FC when they take on Lusaka Avengers who are also fighting to recover from the humiliating 8-2 loss to Siavonga Beetles.
The clash presents Avengers the opportunity to avenge their first round 4-2 defeat to K-Line who have only lost to Automotive FC this season.
After losing to Chipata Boys last weekend, BS Stars will seek to make amends when they face Siavonga Beetles who are determined to avenge the 6-3 loss suffered when the two sides faced off in a week-6 fixture played in November last year.
Struggling Livingstone Pirates who are second from bottom on the FAZ Premier Futsal League table with seven points are aiming to bounce back to winning ways after the 5-3 defeat to CSS Petauke when they take on defending champs Automotive FC.
Despite leading the Premier Futsal League table with 42 points, six points ahead of second-placed K-Line, Auto will fight for a win to protect their unbeaten record.
CSS Petauke are guaranteed of collecting three points as they are pared against Kafue Celtics whose campaign in the FAZ Premier Futsal League has been characterised with walk over defeats.
Fixtures:
- Siavonga Beetles vs BS Stars
- Chipata United vs Kitwe United
- Kabwe K-Line vs Lusaka Avengers
- Lusaka Automotive vs Livingstone Pirates
- CSS Petauke vs Kafue Celtics
