Nkana target third place on Wednesday when they host Zesco United at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe in a rescheduled 2014 FAZ Super Division Week 12 game.
Nkana are currently fifth on the table on 26 points from 13 matches played with two games in hand.
Victory over second placed Zesco will lift them within one point of the latter who have played 14 games this season and are three points behind leaders Zanaco.
“Zesco is a big team but again we are playing at home and the way we are playing I still have confidence we can get maximum points,” Nkana coach Zeddy Saileti.
However, Nkana have a poor home record against Zesco whom they have yet to beat in Kitwe.
Zesco has come away with four draws and two wins since the Ndola club returned to the FAZ Super Division in 2004.
But assistant coach Tenant Chembo, who is standing in for George Lwandamina who is away in Lusaka on a CAF coaching course, said they will not underestimate their hosts despite the good fortunes in Wusakile.
“We are taking the game seriously as at this point we do not want to drop any points,” Chembo said.
A win for Zesco will send them within a point of Zanaco before returning to action after the mid-season break on July 19.

Walasa Lusambo and on Saturday we dismuntle Nchanga by the same margin at their home
The headline should have read ” Can zesco electrocute Nkana? or can nkana disconect zesco or better still can nkana clamp zesco? That is a little bit confusing.
Lets go Nkana lets go!
