Kenya: Mighty Gor Mahia set to be crowned Kenyan Premier League champions for the third consecutive season

Gor Mahia will wrap  up the 2015 Sportspesa Premier League( SPL) title on Wednesday evening if they  will earn a  point during their mid-week League  tie against Sony Sugar  slated at the Nyayo National Stadium.

Gor Mahia  were set to host  their visitors at the  Nairobi City Stadium starting from 1500 hrs but the match has since been moved to Nyayo National Stadium. The kick off time has also been changed from 1500 hrs to 1900 hrs.

Gor need to pick a point in the match to win their third consecutive SPL title. Sony on the other hand is fighting relegation and will go into the match in search of the three points that will ease their fears.

The first leg between the two sides ended 1-0 in favor of Kogalo  with Ali Hassan Abondo scoring the lone goal of the match.

After pulling a barren draw in a tough league encounter against Ulinzi Stars in Nakuru on Sunday, Gor Mahia’s  Green Army are expected to  throng the venue  and light up the pitch  with fireworks .

Head coach Frank Nuttall was happy with the show his team put up against the physical opponents (Ulinzi stars)  and hoped they will repeat a similar performance on Wednesday against their  opponents.

“I congratulate my players for their strength of mind and focus to carry out our game plan.But now  ,we are facing another stubborn side on Wednesday.We cannot underrate them despite  our search for  a point to crown our season success” noted Nuttal.

Gor will parade their usual regulars  that  include Goalkeeper Bonface Oluoch,Khalid Aucho,Meddie Kagere,Innicent Wafua  and Godfrey Walusimbi  to torment their Awendo opponents.

Though Gor are tipped to collect maximum points, they must be  keep their cool and utilise their chances as they race for a record third consecutive Kenyan Premier league title having won in 2013,2014 and now 2015image
