NAPSA Stars vs Nchanga Rangers Prediction: The home team is expected to take maximum points

REIZ Arena will be the venue for this round 6 Zambia Super League game between NAPSA Stars and Nchanga Rangers. In their last meeting, NAPSA Stars secured a 2-0 win. How will Nchanga Rangers play in this one?

NAPSA Stars are coming off a 1-1 draw with the Green Eagles last time out, and they will hope to secure a win this time. In that game, Jimmy Mukeya gave NAPSA Stars the lead in the 13th minute of the game, but a 37th-minute Ernest Mbewe was enough to at least pick a point for his side. Heading into this game, NAPSA Stars have failed to win any of their last three matches, losing to Nkana and ZESCO United. This season, NAPSA Stars have five points from five matches. 

Nchanga Rangers' last league encounter was against ZESCO United, and they lost 1-2. In that game, Laurent Ntambwe Mwanza scored for Nchanga Rangers, but that was not enough to at least take a point for them. However, Nchanga Rangers have seven points accumulated from their first five matches of the season. In those games, this team scored nine goals while conceding five. The visiting team sit 5th place in the standings with seven points. 

The two teams have not been consistent this season, and this game is an open one for the two sides. While I trust NAPSA Stars, Nchanga Rangers could be a difficult team to defeat, looking at their attacking threat this season. The two teams could be at their best, but I believe this will be a competitive game, with few attacking plays, while NAPSA Stars wins.
