Record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia will be out to widen the gap at the summit of the Football Kenya Federation Premier League table when they take on Mathare United in a rescheduled match at Kasarani Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.K’Ogalo overcame an unconvincing start in the initial phase of the season and now sit pretty at the top of the standings with 37 points, four more than second-placed Nzoia Sugar who have punched beyond their weight so far.The Slum Boys, on the other hand, have also overcome a poor start to lift off the relegation zone for the first time this season following their win over Wazito last weekend and they will head into the match in high spirits.##NAJAVA_MECA_7060500##Samuel Koko, Mathare’s stand-in coach has fired a warning to Gor Mahia to expect a different side ahead of the match.“ Gor Mahia should expect a tough match. We are a different Mathare United side. There was one in the past but this one is much more different. They [players] are here to make history,” Koko told Mozzart Sport.Benson Omala, the inform striker, will be hoping to wrap up the first leg on a high by scoring another goal to add to the 16 that he has already gotten in the first 16 matches.Expect a different Mathare United – Koko warns Gor MahiaAt Kasarani Annex, FC Talanta will host Vihiga Bullets in a clash of two teams that have been struggling both on and off the pitch.Home advantage and recent performance stands in favor of Talanta who have won once and drawn twice in their last five matches while Bullets have lost all their previous nine matches.While Talanta have won thrice the entire season, it is a worse case for the visitors who have picked maximum points in only one instance, the win against Nairobi City Stars.K’Ogalo boss heaps praise on table topping squad for doing their talking on the pitchA win for the visiting Bullets will have less impact for them as they will remain rooted at the bottom while a win for the Ken Kenyatta-coached side will see them move to within two points of Sofapaka.Elsewhere, Wazito host Kariobangi Sharks at Muhoroni Stadium with their eyes on getting off the relegation zone with a win.However, that will be pegged not only on the magnitude of their win but also on the hope that Mathare loses to Gor Mahia with a huge margin.
