Nicholas Muyoti has downplayed suggestions that his side, the Nairobi City Stars, could battle Gor Mahia for the league title, with Simba wa Nairobi currently the most in-form team in the FKF Premier League. The Kawangware-based club is on a seven-match winning streak, a run that has propelled them to second in the log with 33 points, seven off leaders Gor Mahia, with 16 matches left before the 2023-24 season concludes.City Stars managed to shake off early-season struggles and have since picked up momentum in the league, registering convincing wins, the latest being a 1-0 victory over Posta Rangers, a side that led the log for the better part of the first leg.##NAJAVA_MECA_7796268##When asked if he believes that his troops can go head-to-head with Gor Mahia for the coveted trophy, Muyoti was quick to pour cold water on the talks, saying their focus is on their next league assignment and that they are not thinking long-term”I am not thinking about Gor Mahia; I am just thinking about our next match. We have a job to do, and for now, we are just thinking about our next opponent. When we come to face Gor Mahia, that’s when we will think about them, but for now, we are thinking and planning about AFC Leopards,” the ex-international said.Next for Simba wa Nairobi is an away match against the AFC Leopards. The highly anticipated clash will be staged at Bukhungu Stadium in Kakamega on Sunday afternoon. Ingwe has won their last two league matches, and they will be out to end City Stars’ fine run in the league, an assignment that may not be too easy to achieve.City Stars were handed a major boost last week when Shabana FC opted to appoint Sammy Omolo as head coach, moving on from Muyoti, whom they had earmarked for appointment as their new head coach.Bandari FC hoping to wow in Mozzart Bet Cup
