Gor Mahia coach Johnathan McKinstry badly injured during halftime drama against Murang’a Seal
Gor Mahia coach Jonathan McKinstry sprained his ankle during a match but led his team to a 3-1 victory despite injury.
Bandari, however, pose a formidable challenge, despite their recent struggles with a winless streak in their last three games.
The Mombasa-based side suffered a setback in their last away game falling 1-0 to Ulinzi Stars FC.
Nevertheless, Bandari coach John Barasa remains optimistic about his team's chances emphasising their determination to compete for the national title.
"From a casual point of view, the title looks out of everyone else's reach given the huge gap Gor have opened at the top. But I strongly believe we still stand a mathematical chance depending on how things turn out in the next few months," Baraza remarked as per The Star.
"There is no guarantee Gor will win all their remaining matches. I also don't see why we should not win all our remaining matches. We still have seven more rounds left and there is still a huge possibility we might win the league," he added.
