Record 13 time Super League Champions, Nkana welcome legendary cup winners Mufulira Wanderers.
Nkana are coming from a 2-0 loss at the hands of Nchanga Rangers while Wanderers edged Nkwazi 2-1.
Kalampa are sixth in the log having won 11 games from 25 matches, with 7 losses, 7 draws. They have accumulated 40 points so far this season.
They have scored 32 goals, while conceding 18 goals.
Meanwhile, 8th-placed Wanderers have accumulated 35 points from 25 matches, having scored 23 goals and conceded 22.
In their most recent face-off, Nkana claimed a 3-1 victory at Shinde Stadium last year.
Nkana have beaten Wanderers six times out of 11 encounters since 2015, compared to Wanderers’ three wins and two draws.
Chipepo says they will be without Chitoshi Chinga, Charles Zulu and Harrison Chisala who are out injured.
A win will see Nkana move to 4th place with 43 points and just within 5 points of log leaders in rivals Power Dynamos.
Coach Mwenya Chipepo will rely on his top attacking options, with the likes of Idris Mbombo, Lazarous Kambole, Sammy Ahoka, Moses Phiri and Chisha Kampamba to lead the charge for goals in this afternoon’s clash.
