Nkana vs Trident Prediction: Both teams are struggling

The match between Nkana and Trident, which will take place in the sixth round of the Zambia Super League, will take place at Vodafone Stadium. As we head into this encounter, none of these teams have a win to their name after five matches played in the league. Having said that, do you believe there will be a victor in this matchup?

Nkana did not come away with a single victory in any of their previous contests. During this time, the home team was defeated in four of their matches by Red Arrows, Mutondo Stars, Green Eagles, and Forest Rangers, while one of their games against FC MUZA resulted in a draw. During four encounters, Nkana scored only one goal, although they gave up as many as five goals to their opponents. During the current league season, Nkana has averaged 0.2 goals scored each game they have participated in. The host team was issued 8 yellow cards but no red cards during the course of the game for disciplinary infractions. Nkana appears to be adept at holding possession of the ball, as seen by their season-long average of 51.67% possession.

Trident comes into this match having not won a single one of their previous five matches. However, the away team lost to Kabwe Warriors, Zanaco, and Red Arrows in three other matches. In the meantime, the remaining two matches, against Kansanshi and Mutondo Stars, ended in a draw. During those games, the away team only managed to score twice, while they allowed seven goals to be scored against them. When Trident played away from home, they had a goal differential of 1.4 for every game in which they scored. Trident has a very strong ball possession, as evidenced by their total average of 55.00% throughout this season.

Both teams will be hoping to finally secure a victory after failing to win any of their first five matches in the league this season; thus, this game is expected to be a competitive one. In spite of the fact that they are not playing at their best, I believe the team that is playing at home has a higher chance of winning this match due to the fact that they have more experience playing in this league and they are playing at home.
