Khama Billiat’s injury woes could end sooner than expected after the attacker missed out on Yadah FC's first win of the season due to a shin injury.

Due to a shin injury, Billiat was a notable absentee when The Miracle Boys defeated TelOne in the Castle Lager Premier League last Sunday thanks to goals from Prosper Kafilapaniila, Marlon Mushonga and Blessed Ndereki.

The attacker’s injury setback had been expected to keep him out of action for two weeks, but new developments suggest the 33-year-old could be set for a quicker return and could be in action when Yadah host Chekudu Pirates on Saturday.

"We are going to assess Khama to see the progress he has made. He might be back this weekend if all goes well. We are very happy with the recovery," head coach Ruzive was quoted by The Herald.

The star man will also be desperate to return to action as he is yet to prove his class. Khama has not managed to find the back of the net or register assists since the start of the league, although he scored a brace in a pre-season friendly.

For Yadah, the aim will be to build up momentum from their first win of the season, however, they face a Pirates side also beaming with confidence, having won their last league outing. 

The match will be played at The Heart Stadium. Kick-off is at 15:00.
