Defending Super Division champions Zesco United return to Lusaka seeking vital win when they visit Green Buffaloes in a delayed Week 10 game at Woodlands Stadium.
Zesco are a team in transition following the departure of Fighton Simukonda earlier this month.
Under new coach Masautso Mwale, they have a record lost one, won one and drawn one in that order from his three games in charge.
The draw result was recorded last Thursday in their last game in Lusaka when they squandered a 2-0 lead to finish 2-2 away to Nkwazi.
That game also marked the return to form of key striker Alfred Luputa who scored a brace in the game away to Nkwazi after a four-month injury layoff.
It seems Luputa did not miss anything during his recovery period because he is two goals shy of the top scorer Lottie Phiri who has 10 goals.
Luputa has managed to record 7th and 8th goals of the season while some strikers during his absence struggled to breach the five-goal gap.
Mwale will be banking on him to try and get the three points over Buffaloes have are struggling in 8th place.
Meanwhile, both Buffaloes and Zesco are on 25 points with the latter in 7th place setting up an interesting match-up at Woodlands.
Winner will move within eight points of leaders Red Arrows while a draw will not be good enough for either side with 12 games remaining before the end of this season.
Futhermore, Buffaloes coach Aggrey Chiyangi is under pressure to save his job while Mwale needs a win to favor of his doubters after three games at the helm.
MMD Government has hacked into The Post for fear of being exposed during the campaigns. It is a very sad development in Zambia. No wonder we need change and that change is ushering in PF
