Konkola Blades have requested that FAZ shifts their delayed Barclays Cup quarterfinal match against Zesco United from Lusaka to the Copperbelt.
Konkola and Zesco are scheduled to clash at Lusaka’s Nkoloma Stadium on Sunday.
This tie was supposed to be played as a doubleheader on the weekend of 17/18 September but the dates coincided with Zesco’s CAF Champions League match against Mamelodi Sundowns.
Konkola secretary Kennedy Chola confirms that his club has written to Football House regarding their proposal to have the game shifted to the Copperbelt.
“We have requested FAZ to consider bringing our Barclays Cup match against Zesco United to the Copperbelt,” Chota said.
“It would be good if this game could be played on the Copperbelt. As you know both Konkola Blades and Zesco United are from the Copperbelt,” he said.
Division One Zone Two side Konkola are in the quarterfinals of the Barclays Cup after eliminating Nampundwe at the preliminary stage.
Nkana, Zanaco and Power Dynamos have already advanced to the semifinals after winning their respective quarterfinal ties.
