AFC Leopards eye limping Vihiga Bullets scalp

12-time Kenyan Premier League champions AFC Leopards have a good chance of getting back to winning ways on Wednesday afternoon when they welcome a struggling Vihiga Bullets at the Nyayo National Stadium in a rescheduled fixture.Coming off a draw against Gor Mahia in the 92nd edition of the Mashemeji Derby, the Patrick Aussems coached side will be keen on regaining their form prior to their clash against Gor that saw the team record three straight victories.Heading into the midweek encounter on the back of a bumper harvest from the Mashemeji Derby that saw the team announce a total gate collection of 3,330,500 shillings, Ingwe head coach mentioned that he will make some changes for the game in order to maintain the freshness from the players.Additionally, the Belgian tactician urged his side to sharpen their finishing in front of goal as that has been their major undoing in recent games.##NAJAVA_MECA_6988540##“Freshness is the key point with matches coming thick and fast. I will have to make some rotation from the game that played against Gor Mahia and this will happen because I need to prevent the players from suffering from fatigue and to keep them for for the coming weeks.We also need to ensure we score goals from the many opportunities we create in a game because that has been our main undoing,” the head coach said.On the other hand, a struggling Vihiga Bullets are coming off a difficult patch that saw them handover a walkover against Sofapaka over the weekend owing to financial difficulties.With Mozzart Sport revealing on Tuesday how traders and motorbike riders came together and raised money for the team to honor their clash against Leopards, the team’s head coach George Owoko has promised to repay the kind gesture from the community members who ensured they do not hand out another walkover.“The game will not be easy, Leopards should expect a tough match. The boys are eager as you know playing against AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia comes with extra motivation for the players and I am confident that they will do well, Leopard should expect a tough game,” he said.In other rescheduled matches, a high flying Kenya Police have a chance of jumping upto fifth place on the log from their current seventh position when they take on bottom placed Mathare United at the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani.The Francis Baraza coached side come into the game riding high on confidence after condemning defending league champions Tusker to a 3-0 humbling over the weekend courtesy of a hat-trick fromHow Gor Mahia plan to navigate FKF Cup with thin squadIn Muhoroni, Wazito will take on Talanta in a bottom of the table dog fight that will be staged at the Muhoroni Stadium.##NAJAVA_MECA_6992607##All games kick off at 1500EAT.
