Record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia will be hoping to move on quickly from the happenings of their last league outing against Vihiga Bullets when they travel down to the coast to take on Bandari in a Sunday afternoon Football Kenya Federation Premier League encounter set for Mbaraki Grounds.2.70 BANDARI 2.70 GOR MAHIA 2.95Prior to the two-week break in the 2021/2022 campaign, K’Ogalo failed to play their home match against Bullets to completion as clashes between the club’s fans and stewards led to the on-field contest being abandoned when the 19-time champions were leading 1-0 halfway through.This time though, Gor, who will now just be playing their second match under new head coach Andreas Spier, minus the Bullets clash, will be hoping to maintain their 100% streak so far under the German tactician having won their clash against Posta Rangers.🟢 | NEXT ASSIGNMENT #Sirkal | #Betsafe pic.twitter.com/rUb12qQ9cy— GOR MAHIA FC (@OfficialGMFC) February 24, 2022 Another motivating factor for K’Ogalo is also the fact that the team has a chance to move into the top four places from their sixth position should they manage to secure a win against the Dockers.Heading into the tie, Gor will be buoyed by the fact that they have also not lost a match against the coastal-based side since December 2018 (W4 D2). They will also welcome the timely return of prodigious talent Benson Omalla who linked up with the team once again after missing in action for a few months following his altercation with the former technical bench that has since been dismissed.Omala back in Gor camp after weeks of ghosting the clubOn the other hand, underachievers Bandari will be hoping to start life under interim head coach Anthony ‘Modo’ Kimani on a perfect note when they welcome the green army to their own turf.After a spate of poor results that has seen the club drop up to 9th on the log after failing to record any win since January this year (D4 L3), the honchos at the club decided they had had enough as they parted ways with Andre Casa Mbungo.BREAKING: Bandari parts ways with Rwandese coachAgainst Gor, Modo, the former AFC Leopards head coach, lines up for his first game at the helm of the club with a side that is certainly struggling in confidence on top of missing their marquee players such as Whyvonne Isuza, Keagan Ndemi, Faraj Ominde and latest acquisition Kevin Kimani who are all sidelined through various injuries.⚽ | MECHI IJAYO Jumapili hii utakuwa wapi ulimwengu mzima ukishuhudia burdaan Mbaraki❓#BandariNiYetu pic.twitter.com/8GNBsaJ2AV— Bandari Football Club (@BandariOfficial) February 23, 2022 Whether he can bring the much-needed manager bounce against an opponent who used to be his fierce rival during his time at AFC Leopards only waits to be seen.The match kicks off at 1500EAT.
