FCB Nyasa Big Bullets Reserves make the short trip to Chilomoni Stadium on Saturday to face The Boys in a highly anticipated SRFA ThumbsUp League fixture.
Bullets Reserves in High Spirits
The young Bullets head into this tie brimming with confidence after last weekend’s emphatic 7-0 demolition of FOMO Reserves at Kamuzu Stadium.
That result reignited their top-three push, and a win on Saturday would see Heston Munthali’s side climb into third place.
Currently sitting fourth with 31 points, Maule Reserves are nine points behind league leaders Ekhaya Reserves, and every match now carries huge significance as the campaign edges toward its decisive stages.
The Opponents
The Boys are also riding a wave of momentum after recording a convincing 4-0 victory over Nyambadwe United in the Castel Challenge Cup last weekend.
The Chilomoni-based side will look to capitalize on home advantage and know that victory could propel them into the top six, making them dangerous opponents for Bullets Reserves.
Previous Meeting
The first-round clash between the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw at Kamuzu Stadium, underlining how evenly matched they can be.
That result sets the stage for Saturday’s return meeting, which promises to be another closely contested battle.
What to Expect
With both sides in fine form, this encounter is expected to deliver high intensity, quality, and drama.
Bullets Reserves will be eager to continue their surge and strengthen their top-three credentials, while The Boys will be equally determined to use home support to upset one of the league’s most consistent sides.
