MTN Super League Set to Resume After AFCON Break
The Zambian 2023/2024 MTN Super League is set to resume this weekend on February 17 following a month-long break prompted by the conclusion of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), where Ivory Coast emerged as champions.
Football Association of Zambia President Andrew Kamanga expressed his optimism that the investments made during the break will enhance the competitiveness of the teams, as they strive to reclaim their position at the top of the continental rankings.
“We are eager to see our teams return to the top of the continental fold where we have slid in the last few years,” Kamanga stated.
He also expressed hope for a smoother and more disciplined second half of the season, with fewer disciplinary cases.
The opening match will feature Napsa Stars FC facing off against 5th-placed Kabwe Warriors on Saturday at 13:00 hours.
With Zesco United leading the table with 39 points and holding a narrow one-point advantage over second-placed Red Arrows FC, teams will be aiming to strengthen their positions and vie for the top spot in the race for the league title.
