Zanaco boss Kelvin Kaindu is hoping to start the second round on a good note and push for consistency.
“I think the beginning of the second round should give us a new chapter, We have not been consistent in the first half. We have dropped points we are suppose to pick up points,” he said.
“We have at least seen improvements in the last few games, cohesion , we have seen the picture and I think we need to step up our gear especially that we will be starting the group stage of the CAF confederation Cup.”
“Kansanshi is a good team, we have respect for the but we just hope for the best and let the better side win,” he added.
The Bankers will be without defender Kelvin Owusu and winger Souleymanou Moussa who are out with injuries.
“We have few injuries , Kelvin Owusu is out doing light training and Moussa Souleymanou we have tried to push him a bit playing with a minor knock definitely these two are out of tomorrow’s game,” Kaindu said.
The Mabanga Boys have reinforced their squad with Jesse Jackson Were and Baba Basile and they could make their debut today.
Moses Phiri will lead the attack for the Bankers with Chisamba Lungu, Abraham Siankombo and Emmanuel Manda are expected to start alongside the talisman.
John Mwewa , Isaac Shamujompa and Peter Kalota are expected to start in defence with Charles Lawu in goal and Kelvin Kapumbu protecting the back four.
Zanaco is eleventh on the log with 22 points while the Mabanga Boys are 13th with 20 points.
