FCB Nyasa Big Bullets head coach Peter Mponda has named a strong starting line-up as The People’s Team prepare for a blockbuster TNM Super League showdown against defending champions Silver Strikers at Kamuzu Stadium this afternoon.
Mponda has made one change to the side that started in last weekend’s 3-0 victory over Dedza Dynamos, with Chawanangwa Gumbo coming in to replace Mike Mkwate.
Striker Babatunde Adepoju will once again wear the armband, with club captain Frank Willard starting from the bench.
The bench offers plenty of experience and attacking options, with Frank Willard, Maxwell Phodo, and Hassan Kajoke all available to make an impact if called upon.
Innocent Nyasulu continues in goal, shielded by a back three of Khumbo Banda, Blessings Mpokera, Aaron Chilipa.
In midfield, Yankho Singo anchors play at the base, supported by Paul Master and Wongani Lungu’s tireless box-to-box drive and Chawanangwa Gumbo’s creative spark further upfield.
Chikumbutso Salima and Peter Banda provide width and pace from the wings as they look to supply captain Babatunde Adepoju, who leads the line this afternoon.
The stage is set for another thrilling afternoon at Kamuzu Stadium as The People’s Team look to extend their impressive form and widen the gap at the top of the standings, while Silver Strikers arrive determined for a result.
A passionate home crowd is expected to create a lively atmosphere as the defending Airtel Top 8 champions go head-to-head with the reigning Super League holders in a fixture that never disappoints.
