Here is everything you need to know about this weekend’s Zambian Super League matches as the final-day drama beckons.
Power Dynamos were declared winners a little over a fortnight ago, while MUZA’s top two finish warrants them a historical continental football qualification. The battle to survive relegation will most certainly be enough to whet our appetite. Buildcon Fc and Chambishi Fc are relegated but who will join them?
Zambian Super League matches to bet on this weekend including betting tips, odds, and previews.
Forest Rangers Vs ZESCO United
A scintillating encounter is on the horizon when these two sides meet in the Ndola derby. Forest Rangers’ heroics were rewarded with a trophy following their victory over MUZA FC in the ABSA Cup final last weekend.
Zesco United haven’t been as enthralling as they once were, and they’ve found themselves in an awkward situation. They missed out on a top-two finish by a whisker, with a 2-1 loss to Green Buffaloes at the business end, dampening their hopes.
Forest Rangers will need a victory to cement a stronger finish. They have 1 victory, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last five matches while Zesco, on the other hand, has 4 victories and 1 loss.
The last meeting in the league ended 0-0 at the Levy Mwanawansa stadium.
Betting tip: Try double chance for either team to win
Lumwana Radiants Vs MUZA FC
Survival will be the home side’s main objective going into this fixture but destiny isn’t in their hands. If both Nkwazi and Nchanga Rangers fail to collect maximum points, Radiants will have to beat second-placed FC MUZA to avoid the drop zone.
MUZA, on the other hand, will be keen on spoiling the party and could send their opposition into the National League. It has been a meteoric rise for a young team that has done everything against all the odds. Missing out on what would have been their first-ever silverware last weekend hasn’t dented the amount of success made this season.
The home side is struggling and has a record of 4 losses and 1 draw in their last five league matches. MUZA are in a rich vein of form and have 4 victories and 1 loss in their last five games in the league.
In their last meeting, MUZA lost 1-2 at home.
Betting tip: Lumwana or Muza to win 0-2 goals in the match.

A victory for the home side would secure a top-ten finish while a victory for the visitors would secure a top-four finish but fate isn’t in their hands.

Leopards have a record of 1 victory, 3 draws, and 1 loss in their last five games. NAPSA Stars have 2 victories,2 draws, and 1 loss in their last five games.
