Shabana will be looking to complete the double over National Super League (NSL) table-toppers FC Talanta when the two teams clash at the Narok Stadium on Saturday.The former top-flight side won the first leg by a solitary goal and will be hoping to secure maximum points and return to the promotion mix.Shabana who have not won their last three matches have drifted to fifth with 43 points, four shy of the second-placed Fortune Sacco and ten behind their match day opponents.Even though coach Robert Ojienda will miss the match owing to personal commitments, he is certain that his boys will end Talanta’s four-match winning streak. In Ojienda’s absence, his assistant Kevin Momanyi will take charge.🔙 | Back to work 🔜 Up next a trip to Narok County to face Fc TALANTAILtung’anak lang’ le Narok, entasupa?#ToreBobe#ToreMorero#WeAreShabanaFC pic.twitter.com/48RUNYBXgy— Shabana Fc Kenya (@Shabanafckenya) July 22, 2021 “The boys prepared well and I believe they will grab the three points.
