Defending champions Zesco United chase a rare six-pointer over Red Arrows when the two sides meet this Saturday at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.
The last time Zesco picked up back-to-back wins over Arrows was in the 2007 season en-route to lifting their debut league title.
This season, Zesco won the first leg match 3-2 on April 24 in Ndola in a game it took Humphrey Maseneko’s 85th minute goal to separate the two sides.
That win also handed George Lwandamina his first league victory over the team he left in the 2014 pre-season before coming away with a 1-1 draw and a 1-0 home loss against Arrows in his first term at Zesco.
Meanwhile, Lwandamina will again bank on the form of striker’s Winston Kalengo and Jackson Mwanza who were on target in the first leg as Zesco search for another important win following last Saturday’s 5-3 home win over 12-time champions Nkana.
Kalengo has scored nine league goals so far this season while Mwanza has seven.
Furthermore, midfielder Mwape Mwelwa, who has scored five goals for Zesco over the last two months, is set for a rare start against his ex-club and is also seeking his first goal against Arrows since leaving them in 2013.
Victory for Zesco will see them rise to 49 points after 21 rounds of matches played with another eight games to go while a home win for 6th positioned Arrows will see them move to 32 points.
