FC MUZA vs Nkwazi Prediction: MUZA to secure maximum points in this game

4th and 5th placed sides in the Zambia Super League, FC MUZA and Nkwazi, will square it off at the Nakambala Stadium. There are just three points separating these sides in the league standings. With Nkwazi winning the reverse fixture of this game, can FC MUZA replicate the same performance?

FC MUZA will be disappointed with how things went for them in their last game, as they lost 2-0 at home. In that game, a brace from Francis Mubanga was all their opponents needed to take all three points. However, FC MUZA have now lost two matches of their last three games, one other coming against Prison Leopards on the road, a 1-0 encounter. However, a recent win for FC MUZA came against Power Dynamos, a road win, with Andrew Phiri scoring the lone goal of the game in the 85th minute. Heading into this game, however, this will be FC MUZA’s first home game since the week 26 game against NAPSA Stars. In their last home matches, FC MUZA won four consecutive matches, defeating the likes of Green Eagles, Trident and Chirundu United.

Nkwazi are off a three-game unbeaten run, and they will come here hoping to keep that performance here. In those matches, Nkwazi defeated Motondo Stars, while they played to draws with Nkana and Forest Rangers. Looking at Nkwazi road games, Nkwazi also are undefeated in the last three games, a run where they scored three goals and conceded two. Heading into this game, Nkwazi have accumulated 43 points from 28 league games, scoring 36 goals while conceding 27.

All possibilities of winning are on the hosts here. Nkwazi have been great in recent games, but they remain inconsistent and unreliable. On the other hand, FC MUZA have been at the top of their game at home in the past months and while they come in as favorites here, it is clear they will take maximum points. While both teams are expected to work on defensive play more in this game, a bet on a few goals can also be considered in this game.
