One of the only two remaining teams in CAF Inter-clubs competitions for Zambia, NAPSA Stars who are in the CAF Confederation Cup playoff round will return to league action this afternoon.
The Pensioners will host in-form Prison Leopards who are second on the log and can reclaim the top spot with a win this afternoon.
Head coach Mohamed Fathi wants his side to continue with the momentum they have after qualifying to the playoff round in the CAF Confederation Cup following a hard-fought 1-1 draw in Mozambique.
“In the league, we need to continue with the team spirit with the win that we had against UD Songo its motivation. What we need from our side is to keep pushing them and keep motivating them to win league games and I think if we pick a good result on Sunday we can move forward because we see ourselves as a big team,” he said.
“The continent will know when we reach the group stage and in the league, we will try to make sure we maintain our continental slot at the end of the day, ” he added.
Napsa Stars host the Collection Boys at 15:00 hrs at Woodlands Stadium in a Week 12 encounter. The other match this afternoon will see Forest Rangers square off with Kitwe United.

Looks like they lived up to his expectations with a victory. Glad to see Mayuka score another goal. This comeback seems real!
