He is also delighted as his team has no hamstring and groin issues.“We thank God for the two extra weeks of preparations that we’ve had. They were important because we did not really have sufficient pre-season time. The players have had enough practice and rest time and it was also a period for the new players to attain the right fitness level……At this stage of the season there are normally many cases of hamstring and groin injuries but luckily we do not have such issues and we are looking forward to the game against Homeboyz,” the former Harambee Stars boss said.##NAJAVA_MECA_5905497##On his part, Mwalala said he anticipates a tough match against Kimanzi’s charges.“We are ready for the game on Sunday. We have been preparing well in training during the break and I am confident that we are better than we were when three weeks ago. It is now a matter of going to put the knowledge we have gained in training into practice,” he stated.The tactician also disclosed that they have been working on their finishing which was a problem during their first game against Kenya Police in Kakamega on matchday one.On Location- Kanairo. #AbanaBeingo pic.twitter.com/uvW4gC1Gp3— Kakamega Homeboyz FC (@FcHomeboyz) October 16, 2021 “We have been working on our attack, especially positional awareness because this is a problem we picked during our match against Kenya Police and I believe that if we create chances as we did against Police, my players will do better,” he added.The match will kick off at 1pm.
