Nkana visit Red Arrows this Sunday in a grudge match at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka that goes beyond the Kitwe sides’ 2014 Charity Shield win over their opponents five months ago.
Arrows will be looking to exact revenge on Nkana who beat them 3-1 in the 2014 Samuel ‘Zoom’ Ndhlovu Memorial Charity Shield final on February 22 at Arthur Davies Stadium in Kitwe.
Furthermore, Arrows enjoy an impressive home record over Nkana who have not beaten the airmen at Nkoloma since September, 2008.
Arrows have won all four of their last home games since then against Nkana.
But the two sides head into this weekends Week 14 match in contrasting league form.
Arrows are currently ninth on the table with 14 points from twelve games played and host Nkana on the back of three successive league defeats.
