Gor Mahia are still perched at the top of the standings with 48 points, but only two ahead of challengers Sofapaka. There is no longer any more room for error. A draw or a loss could see Gor Mahia relinquish the league leadership.<\/p>\n<p>During the match towards the league win last season, Gor Mahia recorded very convincing wins. This season is different larfgely due to the instability that has plagued the club. However, having gone through the four matches in 10 days marathon, Gor Mahia have had over a week to relax worn muscles. Coach Frank Nuttall has had some breathing space to settle, identify working combinations and raise the fitness levels of the team.<\/p>\n<p>So when Gor Mahia take on City stars on Saturday at Nyayo stadium, fans expect a more convincing performance especially since it is against against City stars. However stars will come out fighting since they are in danger of relegation.<\/p>\n<p>And according to captain Jerim Onyango, the players are determined to retain the trophy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We must retain the trophy and everyone in the team is working towards that goal. We want to win all our remaining matches so we can\u2019t start dropping points against City Stars&#8221; said Jerry &#8220;Jagoal&#8221; to the KPL website.<\/p>\n<p>Once again Gor Mahia will depend on Dan Ssserunkuma to reproduce the form he had against Chemelil but this time against his former team. Sserunkuma has 11 league goals but has indicated that winning the league is his number one priority.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/gor-mahia-take-on-city-stars\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All the remaining matches in the 2014 season are pivotal so calling this match important would be redundant.
