Indeni vs Zanaco Prediction: Zanaco will not disappoint

In the opener of the Zambia Super League, newly promoted Indeni will play Zanaco at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium. Which team starts the season right? Below, a preview of the game with betting opportunities will be exploited. 

Indeni will play in the Zambia Super League for the first time since 2022 they were relegated. That year, this team finished 17th out of 18 teams, pulling off 31 points from 34 matches, where they scored 20 times and conceded 46. However, their notable matches last season saw them defeat Nkwazi in the ABSA Cup round ⅛, while they lost to Kabwe Warriors. Heading into this game at home, Indeni will now look to be at their best, show class and give this game all it takes to win. 

Zanaco ended the previous season poorly, with consecutive matches without a win. In those encounters, this team played Nkana to a goalless draw on the season's final day while losing to Red Arrows and Mutondo Stars in other encounters. However, their overall season performance saw this team accumulate 43 points from 34 matches, scoring 27 goals and conceding 30 in the same number of matches, which saw them finish 8th.

A lot is expected from newly promoted Indeni here, and they look unpredictable regarding their winning chances. However, despite Zanaco having a tough season at the end of the previous season, they still look solid for me in a game like this. I expect the two teams to give their all, but with many defensive games anticipated, a bet on a few goals and the road team winning are feasible possibilities.
