Kabwe Warriors are getting ready for a hopeful MTN Super League season start
We cover the major goals for the Zambian championship of one of the country’s most popular clubs and betting company 1xBet’s partner.
Couldn’t handle a champion
Kabwe Warriors will open the MTN Super League season on August 17 with an away match against Green Eagles. But Railmen have already played their first official match of the new campaign.
On August 10, Kabwe Warriors played against Zambian champions Red Arrows for the Charity Shield. The team couldn’t get revenge for their ABSA Cup final defeat or secure its first trophy since 2007, with the Red Arrows winning 4-1 and setting a high standard of play for Railmen to aspire to.
The main tasks are relevant
Kabwe Warriors lost the battle, but not the war, with their sights set high for the season. Railmen are unlikely to climb six places up the MTN Super League standings again after finishing fifth last season. However, the club aims to contend for the top position in Zambian football and make it to the continental tournaments for the first time since 2021. To achieve this, they need to finish in the top two of the national championship or clinch the ABSA Cup.
“We believe we can perform better than we did last season,” said midfielder Hashim Sempala, one of the team’s leaders.
Kabwe Warriors’ ambitions are not unfounded. The partnership between the prominent club and 1xBet began on January 24, 2024, and has already yielded results. Railmen have advanced in the MTN Super League (achieving their best result since 2020) and reached the ABSA Cup final for the first time in 17 years.
