Chunga, who is in his third spell as Gunners coach after he was hounded out of CAPS United a month ago, has been credited with rebuilding relegation-threatened Gunners since his arrival.

The nomadic coach, who won the league title with the team in 2009, clashed with his former team CAPS United at Lafarge on Thursday.Although the two teams settled for a goalless draw Chunga exerted some measure of revenge with a near flawless display.

At the weekend, he met the same team in back to back clashes and won 2-0 in a match that had to be abandoned due to crowd trouble.

Now he faces Misheck Chidzambwa's charges hoping to continue from where he left.

"I came here to take up the challenge of lifting Gunners up the league table. It will not be easy though to lift them from the relegation zone because every team would want to pick up points from us.

But I am ready to face Blue Ribbon. It's a very important match for us because a win will see us moving out of the relegation zone," said Chunga.

Blue Ribbon, who drew 3-3 with Shabanie Mine in their previous game, are in eighth position on the league table and will also be hoping for maximum points against Gunners as they aim to be in the top four at this half way stage of the campaign.

"Our target at this stage is to move to the top four then we can start talking about the championship from there," he said.
