Primera División de Zambia defending champions, Zesco United are away to Napsa Stars this Wednesday with Zesco United hoping to go second with any margin of a win as they have a better goal difference than Nakambala Leopards who are second in the league. It is a game in which Zesco United would not want to drop points as they have aspirations of catching current league leaders Nkana.
Zesco are in excellent form at the moment and every team playing them should prepare adequately to try and halt them. As for Napsa Stars, things are just not happening this season and their fans are really wondering what is going on. They have played six games, won none, drawn three, and lost three.
They have scored four goals, allowed eight, and are seventeenth with three points. Newly promoted Mufulira Blackpool have a similar record. That said, facing an in-form Zesco United team is a daunting prospect. Zesco have played three games, scored six goals and only conceded one.
Napsa Stars have never beaten Zesco and in the last eight encounters between the two teams, Zesco emerged victorious on six occasions with the other two ending in draws. Napsa Stars have lost three times at home to Zesco United and drawn once. Napsa's away record against Zesco is no different.
