Chambeshi: Nkana set to end CAF home drought

Share

Beston Chambeshi says he has a strong feeling Nkana will end their four-match continental winless home drought this weekend.

Nkana on Saturday host Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia on match -day-four of the CAF Confederation Cup Group B in Kitwe hoping to end their six month drought.

Nkana have failed to win a single home game in continental action since their 5-2 preliminary round, return leg win over Mbabane Swallows of Swaziland in the 2014 CAF Champions League.

Since then, Nkana have picked up four straight draws against KCCA (2-2), Zamalek (0-0), CA Bizertin (0-0) and 1-1 against Sewe Sport of Cote d’Ivoire.

“The way I have seen the team, it has gained experience and the teams performance in their last two game have shown that,” Chambeshi said.

Nkana picked up their first point in Group B with draw against Sewe Sport on May 24 and were unfortunate to lose 4-3 away to Etoile on June 7 after leading 3-2 for the opening 80 minutes in Sousse.

“Come Saturday we will change the scenario and pick the three points we need,” Chambeshi said.

Nkana are bottom of Group B on one point, four behind second placed Etoile who are tied on five points with leaders Al Ahly of Egypt.

Al Ahly host Sewe late on Saturday evening in Alexandria.
