Kakamega Homeboyz attacking midfielder Glen Masava is confident that the team will wipe the floor with FC Talanta when the two lock horns on Saturday at Thika Stadium. Talanta, who made headlines last weekend for the wrong reasons, will host Homeboyz looking for nothing but redemption after suffering a shocking cup defeat to minnows Bungoma Stars. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7918272##The Communications Authority of Kenya-sponsored club lost 1-0 to the Division 2 side to bid farewell to the tournament, whose winner books a ticket to the CAF Confederation Cup.
