Tusker have their eyes set on SportPesa League leaders Gor Mahia when the two teams clash in a heated clash on Tuesday afternoon in Kirinyaga.
The brewers, who are in 10th place with 37 points, have the chance to climb into the SportPesa League’s top six with a win here. They come into the game on the back of a slim 1-0 victory against Kariobangi Sharks.
Meanwhile, leaders Gor Mahia are only two points above their eternal rivals AFC Leopards as we battle the business end of the season. Gor have 57 points but have a game in hand over their closest challengers.
Brian Opondo’s own goal was the difference as Gor edged Tusker 1-0 in the reverse fixture last November. The brewers have their eyes set on getting revenge here.
Despite being held to a frustrating barren draw by Sharks in their last encounter, Charles Akonnor’s charges come into the game on an impressive 16-match unbeaten streak.
