Complacency might work against GU

Once again, the Reds will have to guard against complacency arising from their sensational elimination of fancied South African giants, Orlando Pirates from CAF Champions League given that they face a side campaigning in the First Division. That historic feat was followed last weekend by a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Extension Gunners and complacency is thought to have played a part. Yesterday, Chabinga admitted that his boys might be carried away by their CAF Champions League success.

"Complacency is inevitable. When the boys get praise even from the media, they get carried away. But we can't afford to treat Fighters lightly, they are a good side that is why they have gone this far in the competition," Chabinga said. He explained that with chances of defending their Premier League title severely diminished, their focus is on reaching the group stages of the CAF Champions League and winning the Coca-Cola Cup.
