It’s back to duty for FCB Nyasa Big Bullets Reserves this Saturday as they face newly-promoted FC Thondwe in a ThumbsUp Southern Region Football League showdown at Kamuzu Stadium.
After a brief pause in league action due to the SRFA FDH Bank Cup preliminaries, Heston Munthali’s boys are ready to bounce back from their 1-1 draw with The Boys and reclaim full momentum in the title race.
This will be the first-ever meeting between the two sides. Thondwe, promoted from the SRFA Sultan Concrete Building Blocks Division One last season, will come in buzzing after smashing Chilomoni FC 4-0 in cup action. They may be new to the top flight, but they’ve made it clear they aren’t here to just make up the numbers.
Bullets Reserves sit top of the table with 23 points from 10 matches and will be looking to make Kamuzu Stadium count. A win would stretch their lead at the summit and keep the pressure on their closest challengers, Ekhaya Reserves, who are lurking with a game in hand.
Thondwe, currently 10th with 10 points, will be dreaming of a giant-killing moment. But with home familiarity and a title mindset, The People’s Team B are expected to come out flying.
All roads lead to Kamuzu Stadium this Saturday, with kick-off slated for 14:30.
