Relegation Battle Looms as Lumwana Raidiants and Indeni FC Clash in Search of First Win


As we head into Week 6 of the MTN Super League, with Betway as the betting partner, drama and entertainment are expected. Teams like Lumwana Radiants and Indeni FC are still searching for their first win of the season, while second-placed Green Buffaloes aim to narrow the 8-point gap between them and table-toppers Zesco United.

In Solwezi at Lumwana Ground, it will be a battle of two teams struggling at the bottom of the log, both still searching for their first win of the season. Lumwana Radiants host Indeni FC, with the home advantage slightly favoring Lumwana, known for being a stubborn team on home turf.

Indeni sits at the bottom with just one point from five games, having drawn one and lost four. Meanwhile, Radiants have played four matches, losing three and drawing one. Both teams returned to the Super League this season after being relegated to the lower league in the 2022/2023 season and missing out on the 2023/2024 campaign.

Indeni FC's situation at the bottom of the table with just one point has head coach Tenant Chembo concerned ahead of this crucial fixture.

‘’Playing against a team in the relegation zone is always tough, and what makes it even harder is that we’re also in the same position. Both teams are looking for their first win, so it will definitely be an interesting match. Our focus is on securing the three points.’’

‘’I’m optimistic that we’ll do well tomorrow. Despite not winning yet, we’ve noticed some positive improvements in the team. The morale among the boys is high, we’re injury-free, and we’ve been rotating players to keep everyone engaged. Hopefully, the boys stick to the plan, and we get the win tomorrow.’’

As Week 6 of the MTN Super League unfolds, the focus will be on whether Lumwana Radiants or Indeni FC can finally break their winless streaks. With both teams eager to secure their first victory, this relegation battle promises to be a closely contested affair. While Green Buffaloes chase Zesco United at the top of the table, all eyes in Solwezi will be on Lumwana Ground, where two desperate teams face off in what could be a turning point in their season.
