Zesco battle to keep 3 point lead

Zesco United hope to return to winning ways on Sunday when they host Nakambala Leopards in Ndola.

The match will pit leaders Zesco against bottom placed Nakambala who are separated by 26 points with 13 games to go heading into this weekends round 18 games.

Zesco are hoping to rebound to winning ways at home this weekend a week after Napsa Stars halted their seven match winning run with a 0-0 draw in Lusaka.

A win is vital for Zesco now that their lead at the top of the table was cut to just three points following that draw with Power Dynamos in second place on 39 and 36 points respectively.

Meanwhile, Nakambala visit the defending champions with spirits raised after beating National Assembly 2-0 last Saturday in a match that saw them pick up their second league win of the season.

That victory was also the first for new Nakambala coach Patrick Phiri from his first two matches in charge after losing 2-0 away on his debut on July 18 at Nkwazi.

The two sides first leg meeting saw Zesco win 2-1 away in Mazabuka.
