ZESCO United are hunting for a crucial three points against Napsa Stars that will enshrine them as 2020/2021 FAZ/MTN Super League champions elect.
Yesterday Mumamba challenged his squad to wrap up the title race on Sunday with only three games to go before the close of the season.
“The team is in good shape and fully focused on the task at hand. This is a very crucial game as it will have an implication on whether we are crowned champions or not. We want to conclude our business as soon as possible so that we concentrate on preparations for continental football,” Mumamba said.
Mumamba’s sentiments have been backed by Kenyan international striker, Jesse Were who described Sunday’s clash as a final.
“Everyone here is very focused because they know what is at stake. We won’t take this game lightly. Everyone will be coming into this game knowing that any slipups will be dangerous. The other team is also thinking the same because they are in relegation. As such we will take this game very seriously,” he added
