Nzoia Sugar FC head coach Salim Babu says his team cannot afford to underrate bottom-placed Vihiga Bullets ahead of the meeting between the two sides on Wednesday afternoon at the Bukhungu Stadium in Kakamega.The two teams are on the opposite end of the log. Whereas the Bullets are rock bottom with five points, Nzoia are fourth with 38 points and are firmly in the title race mix; they trail leaders Gor Mahia by eight points.##NAJAVA_MECA_7143615##The Millers are clear favorites heading into the game, but Babu is refusing to get carried away. He reveals that he has cautioned his troops against underrating the Bullets, who are currently without a coach following George Owoko’s exit.”It is a very tricky game, and I have already warned my boys about it. We do not have the luxury of being complacent in that game; we have to get the job done,” Babu told Mozzart Sport.He adds that sometimes players tend to relax when they come up against struggling teams and end up being surprised when the minnows rise to the occasion.”When facing a team that’s struggling, it is normal for laxity to creep in, and that’s how you can easily lose a game, and that is something I do not want to see as we prepare to face Vihiga. We have our goals and ambitions, and as such, we have to approach every game with the seriousness that it deserves,” he added.Nzoia Sugar FC madr just one signing.

We have prepared well for the game; the goal is to get maximum points, but we have to deliver on the pitch; we have to stick to our plan and try to get the job done,” he continued.
