Zesco United coach Tenant Chembo says he is banking on his striking triumvirate of Patrick Kabamba, Lottie Phiri and Winston Kalengo to bring the results this season.
The trio looked on fire last Saturday in Zesco’s 2-0 home win over troubled Napsa Stars at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola.
Kalengo and Phiri were on target while Kabamba was instrumental in both goals on their way to collecting their second league win of the season.
“God willing if they are healthy and injury free they will do us a World of good because we played a three striker combination,” Chembo said.
“It looks good and we hope they carry forward for the rest of the season.”
His attacking trio will face its biggest test on Saturday when they host Power Dynamos at the Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola.
Chembo will be banking on the trio to help end Zesco’s five-match winless run against Power stretching back to 2010.
Power have won three and drawn two league meetings in a roll in three seasons over Zesco.
However, Power’s attack has been misfiring and has won just one league game way back on March 16 after a promising start that included a 2-1 win over Zanaco in the Charity Shield final on March 9.
Meanwhile, Zesco will be play their league game at the Trade Fair grounds due to an athletics event on the same date at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium which has been their home ground since 2012.

This season pali bola pa Zambian stereck!! It will be competitive for footballer of the year.
Zambian soccer is beyond redemption. Unless drastic measures are undertaken the only “achievement” the country will record is a free fall on the FIFA ranking. I dont understand why Zambia should be subjected to having a bunch of scumbags to run the affairs of soccer and most areas of leadership. Its pathetic
GUMU GUMU you sound like a sadist. Are things alright with you???
