Coach Antony Akhulia has identified his attack as the main weak point. Bidco have failed to score in eight of their last nine matches.
However, Bidco will be encouraged by the fact that they have an averagely good defense with goalkeeper Issa Emuria boasting of seven clean sheets in the league, the joint top together with Gor Mahia’s Bryne Omondi and Police’s Job Ochieng.
