Buoyant Posta Rangers eye a memorable double over stuttering Gor Mahia

Posts Rangers and Gor Mahia will face off in Ruaraka’s early kick off before paving way for the match between Mathare United and Ulinzi Stars at the same venue.On paper, there’s nothing much the pair will be playing for. They are both safe from relegation and are not in contention for the league title. The only motivation in the game is finishing in a better position.Heading into the game, both teams haven’t lost in their last four games. Posta have registered two wins and two draws while the record league champions have three draws and a win to their name. They have not lost a game since Englishman Mark Harrison took over as head coach just under three weeks ago.👊|Matchday@posta_rangers vs @OfficialGMFC in Ruaraka from 1pm#FKFPL pic.twitter.com/bbDfGFMj0P— FKF Premier League (@Officialfkfpl) August 18, 2021 In the first leg, 13th placed Posta shocked Gor when they beat them by a solitary goal despite playing almost the entire game after Michael Apudo was dismissed for a dangerous foul on Tito Okello in the 3rd minute. Francis Nambute bagged the solo goal. It summarized what was a terrible start to a new season for Gor Mahia, and largely hampered their title defence.In recent years, Gor has proved to be a tough nut for Posta to crack and a chance to complete a rare double over the currently underwhelming outgoing league champions is one.Gor Mahia assistant coach Sammy Omolo, who is also the immediate former Posta Rangers coach says he target is to end the season strongly and are keen on winning their remaining two league fixtures.“The target is to finish the season strongly and so we are going for each and every point in the remaining matches. We are definitely out of the title race but as good finish will prepare us for next season’s race because as you know the 2021/22 season starts next month,” he said.
