KARACHI:


KESC captain Mohammad Essa Khan predicted that the second leg of the Pakistan Premier Football League (PPFL) will be more competitive than the first one.


Essa said that KESC will be looking to continue their unbeaten run in the league, as they are currently leading with 18 points after playing eight matches in the first leg. The team will start the second leg against Afghan FC on Tuesday.

The former national team captain said that the second leg will be more competitive as defending champions KRL will also begin their campaign in the league.

“We have a good chance of winning the league this year,” Khan told The Express Tribune. “So far we are leading, but KRL will also start their matches this time so the pressure will increase.

“We would want to win all of our matches in Karachi.”
