Gor Mahia will be aiming for a second consecutive league victory when they take on a strong KCB side at Dandora Stadium this Sunday. The defending champions are looking to build momentum after a convincing 2-0 win over Sofapaka last weekend, with new signing Ebenezer Adukwaw scoring both goals. The Ghanaian international will be pivotal again as K’Ogalo hopes to continue their improved start to the season.
The match follows an opening day heartbreak for Gor Mahia, who fell 1-0 to Bidco United after conceding in the final minute. Despite that initial setback, confidence has returned to the camp, with the team determined to maintain their title challenge. The players have been focusing on improving their finishing, a key issue highlighted in the opening fixtures. Midfielder Enock Morrison noted that the team dominated play in their first match but struggled to convert chances, whereas in the second game, they managed to capitalize on opportunities and secure a win.
KCB, meanwhile, are in exceptional form, having recorded back-to-back victories in their first two league outings. The bankers are eager to extend their winning streak to three matches, which could propel them to the top of the table. Under the guidance of experienced coach Robert Matano, KCB boasts a squad rich in seasoned players who are well-versed in handling high-pressure situations. Midfielder Tyron Kariuki expressed confidence within the squad, stating that the team is motivated and well-prepared to face Gor Mahia. He emphasized that while Gor Mahia is a formidable opponent, KCB are determined to put up a strong performance and secure a positive result.
Historically, encounters between Gor Mahia and KCB have been closely contested. In their last 11 meetings, both sides have won three matches each, with five ending in draws, reflecting the competitive nature of this fixture. With both teams brimming with confidence and aiming to climb the league table, Sunday’s clash promises to be an enthralling contest for fans.
