We will be playing at home and a win in our last game will be of huge motivation. We cannot approach the game thinking that they will be easy opponents, we have adequately planned for them and we are ready for the game,” said Nyangweso.Posta are stuttering to the end of the season having won just one of their last five games which came against relegation-threatened Vihiga Bullets.1.38 Bandari 4.30 Vihiga Bullets 8.00Bandari vs Vihiga BulletsTrailing log leaders Kakamega Homeboyz by just six points, Bandari will be dancing their chances of mounting a late title charge when they take on Vihiga Bullets.The Dockers are unbeaten in the last five games, a run that has resuscitated their faint hopes of landing their maiden title with head coach Anthony ‘Modo’ Kimani turning around their fortunes.Why Kariobangi Sharks will dish their first ever walkover in the FKFPLBullets who are fighting for their lives will, however, be no pushovers having displayed their mettle by coming from two goals down to beat Kariobangi Sharks 4-3 last time out which handed them a shot in arm in the relegation battle.Yet another walkover looms in the FKFPL – Gor will not honour match against TalantaModo was wary of Bullets who are fighting for their lives as he noted that winning in the business end of the season is no mean feat.“All the matches that we will be playing from today henceforth are going to be very tough matches, we are getting to the business end of things and no one wants to drop points whether it is home or away.We expect a tough encounter from Vihiga, it is a very good side and they are fighting relegation which makes them even more dangerous heading into this particular match,” said Kimani.The game is slated for a 3 PM kick-off at the Mbaraki Sports Club.2.40 Sofapaka 2.80 Bidco United 3.25Sofapaka vs Bidco UnitedBatoto ba Mungu will be brimming with confidence having picked up their first back-to-back win of the year following victories over Nzoia Sugar and Nairobi City Stars coupled with the walkover against Mathare United.Bidco United are however on a single win in the last seven games, a run which has seen them hover perilously close to the drop zone.Ahead of the clash, Sofapaka head coach David Ouma highlighted the unpredictability of Bidco but has set his sights on getting three points.Akhulia looking to sharpen attack ahead of Sofapaka duel”We are playing a very unpredictable team who are good on first breaks and rotations.
