Zanaco vs Green Buffaloes Prediction: Zanaco expected to rewrite the story here

In the Zambia Super League, Zanaco will host Green Buffaloes at the Sunset Stadium. Historically, Green Buffaloes have remained undefeated against Zanaco in recent years, whether playing at home or away. However, could the narrative change in this upcoming encounter?

Zanaco played to a draw in their previous weekend match, a 2-2 showdown against ZESCO United. Charles Zulu and Francis Moustapha found the net for Zanaco, but Samson Ngoma's brace for ZESCO United prevented Zanaco from securing all three points. Despite this result, Zanaco has now extended their unbeaten streak to six league games. During this run, they have drawn five matches, with their only victory being a 0-1 away win against Prison Leopards.

Green Buffaloes extended their unbeaten streak to three games, winning two matches and settling for a goalless draw in another, which occurred as an away game against Kansanshi. Their victories came against Green Eagles and Kabwe Warriors. However, before this unbeaten run, Green Buffaloes suffered consecutive defeats to Power Dynamos and ZESCO United, both ending in identical 0-1 scores. As they head into this upcoming game, Green Buffaloes currently hold the 10th position in the league standings with 35 points from 27 league matches. During this period, they scored 22 goals while conceding 24 in the same number of matches.

Zanaco hasn't particularly stood out leading up to this game, but their unbeaten streak deserves recognition. On the other hand, Green Buffaloes' results have been inconsistent, with performances ranging from subpar to satisfactory. However, if there's ever a time for Zanaco to defeat Green Buffaloes, it's now, especially playing at home. I anticipate this match to be defensively oriented, with Zanaco ultimately securing a victory on their home turf.
