Gor Mahia return to league action this Friday with a crucial away clash against Bandari FC at the Mbaraki Stadium from 3pm.

After two consecutive losses, the mission is simple: get three points and reclaim momentum in the title race. Victory in Mombasa would also boost the team’s push to return to the league summit.

History shows that playing Bandari away is never straight forward. In our last five league visits to the coast, we have managed just 1 win and 1 draw with 3 losses.

Bandari’s home form against us and the humid coastal conditions have often proved a hurdle, and the team will be wary of repeating recent frustrations.

This fixture stretches back to the early 1990s and Friday’s encounter will mark the 49th league meeting between the two sides.

Despite the recent struggles in Mombasa, the overall record strongly favours us with 25 wins, 14 draws and 9 losses.

This record reflects decades of dominance, but one that also serves as a reminder that Bandari will be up for the challenge.

With pressure to bounce back, the squad is focused and determined to restore confidence and discipline, intensity, and clinical finishing will be key ingredients needed to get the job done away from home.
