In a highly anticipated showdown at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium, Zesco United, sitting comfortably at the top of the league with 36 points, faces Nkwazi FC, a team grappling with recent coaching upheavals.
Zesco United enters the game following a surprising 1-0 loss to Prison Leopards, a result that raises eyebrows and adds an extra layer of intrigue. The absence of star player Kelvin Mubanga Kampamba, representing the Zambia National Team at the AFCON in Ivory Coast, is notable but not the only storyline in this clash.
The spotlight shifts to Nkwazi FC, a team without the guidance of their former head coach Osward Mutapa, who resigned earlier in the week and is poised to take the helm at Power Dynamos. The encounter with Zesco marks the debut of Keegan Phiri as interim coach for Nkwazi, symbolizing a new era and the challenges of navigating uncharted waters.
Nkwazi FC, currently occupying the 5th spot on the log with 30 points, faces this match on the back of consecutive defeats to Konkola Blades and Power Dynamos. The coaching transition adds an element of unpredictability to their performance, and the players will be eager to prove their mettle under the new leadership.

The Zesco vs Nkwazi FC fixture promises not only football excitement but also a narrative of resilience and adaptability in the face of unexpected challenges.
