Homeboyz out to silence Ulinzi guns and go eight points clear of Tusker

Football Kenya Federation Premier League leaders Kakamega Homeboyz will not be under pressure to silence the Ulinzi Stars guns on Thursday and open a wider margin at the top, centre back Sylvester Owino has stated.Homeboyz watched the nine-point cushion they were enjoying at the top whittle down to five following a 2-1 defeat suffered in the hands of Bandari last weekend at Mbaraki Stadium, in a round that defending champions Tusker beat Kariobangi Sharks 1-0 at Ruaraka grounds to cut the gap to six points.Tusker further inched closer to the Homeboyz based club after playing KCB to a one-all draw on Tuesday, leaving the Kakamega based club with no option other than to beat the soldiers whom they will take on at Thika Stadium.2.90 Ulinzi Stars 2.85 Kakamega Homeboyz 2.60However, Owino who grabbed the consolation in the Bandari loss says their focus is to claim the three points and improve on the performance rather than fixing eyes on how their closest challengers will play and the kind of results they will mine out in the round and the subsequent ones.Match Day:Ulinzi Stars vs Kakamega Homeboyz 3PM Thika Sub-County Stadium🙏🏾 #MozzartBet#wearehomeboyz#AbanaBeingo pic.twitter.com/ODjoZ0xwUR— Kakamega Homeboyz FC (@FcHomeboyz) March 17, 2022 “We are not under pressure to win the match at all.
