Silver Strikers Lead as Mukuru Wanderers Close Gap in Super League Title Race

By Reason Kandozi


The battle for the 2024 Super League of Malawi title intensifies as the top three teams; Silver Strikers, Mukuru Wanderers, and FCB Nyasa Big Bullets continue their relentless pursuit of championship glory.

In the latest round of matches today, Silver Strikers were held to a goalless draw by Bangwe All Stars at Balaka Stadium, maintaining their unbeaten streak since the start of the season. Despite the stalemate, Silver Strikers remain at the summit of the table with 49 points from 21 matches. Their defense has been a key asset, as evidenced by their impressive +29 goal difference, which has kept them as firm favorites for the title.


Meanwhile, Mukuru Wanderers narrowed the gap between themselves and Silver Strikers after securing a narrow 1-0 victory over FOMO FC at Kamuzu Stadium. The win elevates Wanderers to 44 points, only five points behind the league leaders.


Mukuru Wanderers are eager to end their long title drought, their prospects for lifting the championship are still alive.

On the other hand, FCB Nyasa Big Bullets are finding it increasingly difficult to defend the title they’ve dominated for the past five years.

Their 0-0 draw against Mzuzu City Hammers at Mzuzu Stadium leaves them third on the table with 34 points, level with Civil Service United and Kamuzu Barracks.


Bullets’ performance this season has been a stark contrast to their usual dominance, and with a goal difference of just +12, they have plenty of work to do if they are to salvage their title defense.


With the league nearing its final stretch, all eyes are on Silver Strikers as they look to maintain their unbeaten run. However, Mukuru Wanderers’ resurgent form and FCB Nyasa Big Bullets' determination to retain their title promise a thrilling end to the 2024 season.


Fans can expect more drama and excitement as the top three teams fight to make their mark in Malawian football history.
