Of all current top six FKFPL sides, only Nzoia Sugar have managed to grab all three points.
Gor Mahia head coach Johnathan McKinstry has admitted that he will count on Tusker dropping points away against Wazito at the Muhoroni stadium in order for his side to stand a chance of returning to the league summit.
The Northern Irish tactician revealed that,although his side are fully focused on winning all their remaining matches, results elsewhere going in their favor would give them a proper chance at clinching their 20th league title.
“I know we beat Ulinzi in the first leg,” he said, “I know we obviously beat Kakamega and came out on top against Nairobi City Stars in the first leg,” he added.

Both title contenders were unable to get the best of each other in a match that epitomized what competition really is.
“There are games we have to play. We have to face every team twice which is the nature of this league but our rivals have to travel to Muhoroni and only Nzoia have won of all the top six teams at that place.
“ Wazito are fighting for their lives to avoid relegation. Posta Rangers, the coach there (John Kamau) loves upsetting big teams, so there is a lot of football to be played until the end of the season.”
