Nkana tests Power Dynamos in Kitwe derby

Power Dynamos hope to continue their current but rare domination over Nkana in the Kitwe derby when they meet this Saturday at Arthur Davies Stadium.

Power and Nkana are 3rd and 2nd on 50 and 55 points respectively heading into the match the visitors are red-hot favourites to take the three points back to Wusakile but have not beaten Power in their last two derby meetings.

The first leg this season ended 1-1 in Wusakile after Power beat Nkana 2-1 earlier in August, 2015 to pick up their first derby victory over the latter since 2012.

Power head into the match clearly looking outgunned by Nkana despite their modest form against the latter.

Walter Bwalya who has 15 goals and in the last two games for Nkana will be critical for the visitors.

In addition, striker Ronald Kampamba who has scored two goals in Nkana’s last two matches is also set to test Power’s backline of Francis Kasonde, Billy Mutale, Govender Simwala and Lawrence Chungu.

The game will also test Patson Daka’s recent prolific form that has seen him score five goals over the six games dating back to July 22.

Meanwhile, Daka’s side-kick Larry Bwalya remains out of action but midfielder Benson Sakala has recovered from injury after missing last weeks 2-1 away win over Forest Rangers.
