Expert Betting Tips
These two teams have not been performing very well as of late, and that weakness will play a significant role in determining their fate this time. But, if we look at their prior matches, we can see that ZESCO United has always been able to find a way to beat the Kabwe Warriors when they are on the road. Given that they are now playing in their own stadium, it should not come as a surprise if they are successful once again. In the meantime, despite the fact that neither team's offense has been particularly strong recently, I do not believe that there will be a high percentage of chances that are converted during this encounter.
