Makwaza tips Nkana to beat Power

Share

Power Dynamos legend Linos Makwaza says FAZ Super League leaders Nkana have an edge over his old club going into Saturday’s big Kitwe derby at Arthur Davies Stadium.

Nkana could win their elusive 12th league title if they beat Power in this Week 29 match.

The immediate past Nkana coach believes tactically Nkana have an upper hand over Power.

Nkana won the first leg match 2-0 at Nkana Stadium in Wusakile.

“I think tactically Nkana have got an upper hand, they have the best striking force in the country and I think they have an upper hand,” he said.

“This will be a very tight and crucial game. Always Nkana play well at Arthur Davies and Power play well at Nkana Stadium,” Makwaza added.

He further called for calm between Nkana and Power supporters.

“To the fans, they should behave well, this is a local derby we are brothers and sisters so the best team will win.”

Power are 6th on the table on 41 points while Nkana have 55 points.

  1. Aba yellow…all the way! Ba Nkana you wont have it on a silver plater. You have to beat us convincingly to win the championship this week. Elo nga mwalusa no stone throwing pantu mukaponokwa. tuleisa! And watch out for Power next season.

    • Ya , right now you can only talk about next season ! This year Power have been outclassed ! Not even a hope of fourth place . Nkana have already clinched second place even if they lost both remaining games !

  2. I was at Juldan bus stop in Kitwe when one Zesco supporter, one of these station bosses admitted that he was at the Nkana – Zesco match but he couldn’t come out as Zesco supporter and when his collegue asked ati naiwe ulatina ba Nkana supporter he admitted ati uleyangala na ba Nkana supporter. Kalampa yalitufulunganyafye fwebambi

  3. True indeed “Always Nkana play well at Arthur Davies and Power play well at Nkana Stadium,”. ‘kuli onse uyo tamba bola, ena alishibati ba Nkana FIPOLOPOLO…” We are the original Chipolopolo. GO Nkana Go!

  4. I am a Power Dynamos fan but looking at the way Nkana are playing, I totally agree that they have an upper hand over us tactically. Since we do not have any hopes of winning the league title, it will not pain me if Nkana carries the day.

  5. whoever stings the other first carries the day.kwati efo chikaba
    quite a tricky encounter people.however it is easy to predict this game looking @ who are the favoutites & most motivated to grab the tiltle.

  6. nkana will lose because, they are under pressure to win the league title. as for power, we are playing to form a team to compite next year. Aba yellow beat these boyz to prove a point.

    • ON A GIVEN DAY , ANY TEAM CAN BEAT ANOTHER TEAM . THE PRESSURE IS THERE EVERYWHERE . POWER COACH IS UNDER PRESSURE TO AVOID BEING SACKED ! POWER PLAYERS ARE ALSO UNDER PRESSURE TO AVOID BEING DROPPED FOR NEXT SEASON ! NKANA WILL NOT SACK THEIR COACH NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS BECAUSE NKANA HAVE ALREADY DONE MUCH BETTER THAN THE LAST FEW SEASONS .

  7. we ll wait for 90 minutes both are boys strong enegitic and have gud football skills mind you that ball is round it can roll either way may the good team win.
