Red Arrows vs Nchanga Rangers Prediction: Can Red Arrows keep title hopes alive in the final matches of the season?

In round 29 of the Zambia Super League, Red Arrows will play Nchanga Rangers at Nkoloma Stadium. The two teams last meeting ended in a win for Nchanga Rangers. At home, can Red Arrows get revenge? Below, I preview this game and offer predictions. 

Red Arrows

Red Arrows were held to a 1-1 draw in their last league game and will hope for a win here. In that encounter, Ackim Mumba's strike in the 44th minute put Red Arrows in the lead, but an own goal denied this team maximum points in the second half. In the meantime, Red Arrows have won only one of their recent matches, coming against NAPSA Stars in a 1-0 contest. In other encounters, Red Arrows lost to Nkana and Red Arrows, while settling for a draw with Mutondo Stars and Nkwazi. With 44 points from 28 matches, Red Arrows sit in 5th place, scoring 26 goals and conceding 20. 

Nchanga Rangers

Nchanga Rangers showed class in their last league game and won. In a 1-0 contest, the 17th-minute Mohamed Soumahoro strike saw them pick up maximum points. In the meantime, this team has been impressive, going unbeaten in their last four matches. In that run, this team picked up a win over Nkana while settling for draws with Atl. Lusaka and Green Eagles. Ahead of this game, Nchanga Rangers have gone winless in their last five road matches with just one win in their last 13. With 33 points from 28 matches, Nchanga Rangers sit in 11th place in the standings, scoring 24 goals with 25 conceded. 

Expert Betting Tips

Nchanga Rangers have been playing exceptionally well lately and will feel confident heading into this game. However, Red Arrows recent matches have seen them go winless and, in fact, struggle with a number of poor performances in their last matches. This will be a close contest, especially with how their first leg ended. However, I have more faith in the Red Arrows at home, as I believe they will display more hunger and thirst for winning.
