ZESCO United vs Nkwazi Prediction: High-flying ZESCO remain undefeated

Levy Mwanawasa Stadium will be the venue for the round 2 Zambia Super League encounter between ZESCO United and Nkwazi. The two teams' last meeting was in mid-January, and ZESCO United won that encounter. Can Nkwazi take something out in this one?

ZESCO United will look to keep their winning streak intact when they host Nkwazi here. Last time out, this team was at home against Green Eagles, and they secured a 1-0 win, with 23rd minute Tandi Mwape strike being the difference of the day. In the meantime, ZESCO United had secured wins over Nkana and NAPSA Stars in their first two games of the season on the road. This team comes into this game with three goals scored in three matches while not conceding any. 

Nkwazi's last league encounter was against Atl. Lusaka and this team were held to a goalless draw. However, that encounter made it consecutive matches without a win for this team, which had lost at home to NAPSA Stars in a prior encounter, which ended 0-1. In the meantime, the visiting team started their season with consecutive victories over the Green Eagles and Mutondo Stars. Nkwazi have scored four goals this season while conceding two. 

ZESCO United have been consistently winning matches and have a very good defensive record. While the road team is not also doing badly defensively, I expect them to focus on that to avoid a defeat. In the meantime, ZESCO United are not a good attacking side and might need more than luck to score many goals here. Take this game to end with a few goals, while the home team wins.
