ZAMBIA super league side Kabwe Warriors will be hoping to continue with their unbeaten run this season when they host Green Buffaloes at Kabwe’s Godfrey Chitalu stadium in a week 14 return fixture.
Warriors remain the only unbeaten side in both streams of the 2019 league and are third in stream A of the Zambia super league of this year’s season.
They host Green Buffaloes who have struggled this season after having managed to secure a top four finish in the last three seasons.
The ‘magnificent’ people’s Warriors team will be hoping to replicate the first leg’s result or better, which ended in a 1-1 draw after they came from behind to steal a late equalizer from Buffaloes at Edwin Imboela stadium.
A win or draw for Warriors will maintain tabs for the team still eyeing top spot in stream but fall short of it in third position behind Zanaco and Lusaka Dynamos.
Meanwhile Lusaka Dynamos will also be hoping to continue with their fine form this season when they take on a Red Arrows who have also been impressive this season.
Dynamos who are lying second on the log in the stream will be hoping for a win to shoot to the summit of the table.
In stream B, leaders Green Eagles will be hoping to maintain their fine form following their famous 4-1 win at Nkana’s Scrivener Stadium on Wednesday.
Eagles visit Edwin Imboela stadium to take on former leaders Nkwazi, the only side that had beaten the Choma-based side at home this season.
A revenge and win for Eagles who got a humiliating beating from Nkwazi in the first leg will open a huge gap between them and other teams in the league therefore enhancing their chances of returning to continental football next season.
