The TNM Super League action resumes today with a blockbuster showdown at Kamuzu Stadium as second-placed Mighty Mukuru Wanderers host third-placed Ekhaya FC in a match that could shake up the league standings.
Wanderers go into this high-stakes clash with renewed motivation, hoping to capitalize on FCB Nyasa Big Bullets’ shock 2-1 defeat to Civil Service United yesterday in Lilongwe. A win for the Nomads will see them leap to the top of the log, overtaking their age-old rivals Bullets, who have stumbled in recent weeks.
Ekhaya FC, on the other hand, are not far off in the title hunt. A victory in Blantyre would not only close the gap between them and the leading pack but also make a bold statement about their championship ambitions.
Meanwhile, Silver Strikers—currently facing pressure to regain form after a goalless draw with Kamuzu Barracks on Thursday—will travel to the north to take on Moyale Barracks at Rumphi Stadium. The Central Bankers must win to keep their title hopes alive and avoid further pressure from the chasing pack.
Elsewhere in the league, Creck Sporting Club hosts Mzuzu City Hummers at Dimba Stadium, hoping to bounce back from recent poor form. Dedza Dynamos will look to use home advantage when they take on Blue Eagles at Dedza Stadium, while Karonga Stadium will witness a northern derby between Chitipa United and Karonga United.
With only a few points separating the top half of the table, today’s results could bring significant shifts in the title race, relegation battle, and top-four fight. Fans across the country are expected to flock to stadiums or tune in from home as the league promises more drama, goals, and surprises.
