Sofapaka will be motivated to continue where they left off when they edged Chemelil Sugar 1-0 on April 15.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very well prepared for the match because we know that they (Gor Mahia) are a string side and they are on a very good run so far. We shall carry a winning mentality into the match and hope for good results,\u201d said Sofapaka striker John Baraza to the Nation.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia beat Sofapaka 2-1 in the Super Cup match played in January. They will be pushing to repeat that feat and keep their unbeaten record.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are enjoying quite a good start to the season, and the players are well motivated. I know that we will come up against very strong opponents, but we also have a strong team and I believe we shall secure a good result,\u201d said coach Frank Nuttall to the Nation.<\/p>\n<p>The return of Dirkir Glay was instrumental in enabling Gor Mahia to keep their first clean sheet of the 2015 KPL season. This is one area where Gor Mahia fans will be hoping Gor Mahia continue.<\/p>\n<p>Kickoff will be 3pm Sunday at City stadium. Gor Mahia have hosted very few weekend matches this season. It is therefore important that fans show up in large numbers and put money in the club&#8217;s coffers.<\/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-sofapaka-3\/\"\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>Gor Mahia will take on last season&#8217;s league runners up and cup winners Sofapaka in a KPL encounter to be<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[228],"class_list":["post-6601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-gor-mahia-vs-sofapaka"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6601"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6601\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6602,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6601\/revisions\/6602"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
