KCB FC Head Coach Patrick ‘Luwowo’ Odhiambo is targeting to end their winless run when they face Talanta Fc in a league match scheduled Friday at Dandora Stadium.
The bankers last won a league match almost two months ago when they defeated Ulinzi Stars on 15th March.There have a series of draws and losses since then ,results that have pushed the one time title hopefuls to 7th place.
In their last assignment they fell to league leaders Kenya Police Fc 2-1,a reversal of the form is what coach Patrick will be targeting on Friday in Dandora.
“Every remaining match in the premier league is like a final for us. We must treat it as such. Therefore, the boys have to step up in every department to ensure that we are playing as a unit. Our goal is to finish at the top four, that is where this team belongs. I am confident we will go to Dandora and come back home with three vital points,” said coach Odhiambo.
Having crashed out of the FKF Cup to second division side Nairobi United, Odhiambo’s men can only fight for the top four as the league title looks out of sight. In his debut season as KCB FC Head Coach, a top four finish will be quite an achievement for Odhiambo.
Defender Nashon Alembi and Striker Philemon Nyakwakwa are set to miss Talanta’s fixture due to illness. Goalkeeper coach Samuel Koko and Manzur Okwako are also away with the Kenya U20 side in Egypt for the U20 AFCON tournament.
Brian Olang’o will start in goal while Kevin Okumu, Nashon Wekesa, Maurice Owino and Haniff Wesonga will feature at the backline. In the midfield , Michael Mutinda, Dennis Maruti and Derrick Otieno are expected to feature.
Kinyanjui James, Danson Kiprono and Patrick Otieno, who has two goals in his last two matches are set to lead KCB’s attack.
