Nkana coach Linos Makwaza says their upcoming five games against relegation battling sides will help define their status in the Faz Super Division this season.
Seven of 8th placed Nkana’s eight remaining opponents are below them on the table.
Three of those teams are currently in the bottom four of the table and Nkana need 15 points in their remaining games to survive what is turning out not only a tight battle for the league title but also to avoid the drop.
“No game will be easy because now we are playing teams that are fighting relegation,” Makwaza said.
Nkana will face second from bottom Nkwazi away in Lusaka this Saturday before hosting fifth from bottom Green Eagles in their next game in Week 24.
In Week 26, Nkana travel to bottom placed Kalewa in Ndola and to 11th placed Roan United in Week 28 after playing continental place chasing Konkola Blades in Week 27.
In Week 29, Nkana will host fourth from last Lime Hotspurs before closing the season against troubled Green Buffaloes in Week 30.
Nkana are targeting to end a second successive season in the Super Division after returning to top flight football in the 2010 campaign for the first time after a six year hiatus.

A very typical eampxle of how footballclubs are the new investments of rich business people who don’t have any idea there are people attached to the club who will give their life for it. Those businessmen think they can murder clubculture and -history by changing colors, crests and jerseys and turn clubs into cashcows. Those *****s do not see, and obviously do not care, they’re destroying not only clubhistory but also communities which are loyal to the club. It really is a bloody shame that this is happening and on an increasing scale.I wish the Commando Azules all the best in the near future and remember: Stand Your Ground. Together we will stop this nonsense.
