Last season, Bullets scored seven goals past the Kanjedza outfit who survived the relegation towards the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>A win for Bullets will take their tally to 32 points, three above the second-placed Chitipa United, who wrapped up their first round campaign with a 1-0 victory over Chitipa United last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>But, if the hosts claim all the points, they will move out of the relegation zone with 16 points, level with Blue Eagles who were runners-up last season, but they have found the going very tough in the current campaign.<\/p>\n<p>At Mzuzu Stadium, third placed Silver will visit Mzuzu Stadium for a very crucial match against Moyale Barracks. When the two teams met in the FDH Bank Cup, the Mzuzu based soldiers knocked out the Bankers on penalties following a 1-1 result in the regulation time.<\/p>\n<p>Pieter De Jhong\u2019s charges, who have been dominating throughout the opening matches, suffered their second loss of the season, and first at home when they lost 2-1 to cross-town rivals, Civil Service United on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>The defeat eventually saw them dropping into third position with 28 points, a point behind Bullets in the championship race. As for the Soldiers, a win will see them dislodging Kamuzu Barracks into the 6th position with 20 points. Meanwhile, the second round fixtures will commence next weekend across the nation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
