Posta Rangers midfielder Bernard Ondiek is hoping the club can breach the fortified Mbaraki fortress when they take on Bandari FC on Wednesday 20 October. The Dockers are usually a tough nut to crack while playing in their own backyard having lost only three games at Mbaraki Grounds in the 2020-2021 Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL).A trip to the South side 🔴⚫Ahead of our midweek fixture against @BandariOfficial #WeAreTheMailMen pic.twitter.com/NcBu22p0f8— Posta Rangers Football Club (@posta_rangers) October 19, 2021 Speaking to Mozzart Sport, Ondiek acknowledged the tough task at hand but will be angling for three points against a Bandari side that have their 100% record still intact having picked wins against Mathare United and Bidco United.“Getting three points in Mombasa is never easy, it is however not impossible because we are looking for a win, we cannot come all the way to look for a point,”“We will however be cautious not to concede because that was our major undoing last season and if we don’t concede we have a high chance of winning the game,” said Ondiek.The Mailmen are coming off a morale-boosting 4-0 thumping of league newbies Vihiga Bullets having started the season with a defeat to Kariobangi Sharks. Ondiek billed the clash as a derby, noting that the club is on an upward trajectory following the emphatic win over Bullets.
