Emmanuel Banda starts …Edward Chilufya makes the bench

Chipolopolo midfield ace Emmanuel Banda will make his debut in the UEFA Champions League qualifying round this evening after being named in the Djurgadens IF starting line up.

Banda will start in midfield for the Stockholms stolthet who square off with Hungarian outfit Ferencvaros at 19:00hrs at the Groupama Aréna in Budapest.

Compatriot Edward Chilufya who just returned from injury recently starts from the bench and will most likely be used in the second half by coach Kim Bergstrand.

Bergstrand will bank on his Zambian connection for goals after they netted a goal each in their previous Swedish Allsvenskan encounter against Örebro.

If Djurgadens manage to get past the Hungarian side they will face off with Scottish giants Celtic in the second round who thrashed Reykjavik 6-0 yesterday.
