Mutondo Stars vs Atl. Lusaka Prediction: The home team will take the maximum points

Levy Mwanawasa Stadium will be the venue for the week 15 Zambia Super League encounter between Mutondo Stars and Atl. Lusaka. In the league, this will be the first meeting between these teams. Let's preview this game and make predictions.

Mutondo Stars struggled like every other week the previous weekend against Lumwana Radiants in a 0-2 encounter. In that game, two late second-half goals from Abraham Kanyanga were enough to see their opponent take maximum points. However, that defeat made it five in a row for Mutondo Stars, while they have equally failed to win any of their last six games, drawing Zanaco in that run. Heading into this game, Mutondo Stars conceded in their last seven league games. With 16 points, Mutondo Stars sit 14th in the league standings, one point ahead of relegation-placed Zanaco.

Atl. Lusaka's last league game was against Red Arrows, and this team lost 0-2. In that game, Atl. Lusaka conceded twice before the break, with Godfrey Ngwenya and lazarus Chishimba netting for their opponent. However, a look at Atl. Lusaka's recent matches have seen them lose twice, the first against Kabwe Warriors in early November. While they drew Nchanga Rangers and Mufulira in the goalless encounter, their best result was a win over Lumwana Radiants, ending 0-2. With 17 points, Atl. Lusaka sit 12th in the league standings, scoring eight goals and conceding 17.

Mutondo Stars should be able to return to winning ways this time. While the home side has struggled lately, the visiting side has had troubles defensively, too and have not been impressive overall. The two teams struggle to find balance in attack and defence. However, Mutondo Stars are a bit of an improved side in attack and should be able to secure a win in what should end 2-0.
