Tusker midfielder Boniface Muchiri has admitted that they are feeling the pressure of being at the top of the FKF Premier League.

The brewers, who were held to a barren draw by title rivals KCB last weekend, take on Wazito in today’s fixture at Utalii Grounds.

“We didn’t get the desired results against KCB, but I feel we can do that in the coming few games,” said Muchiri.

“There is always the pressure of being at the top but it is making us work extra hard because if we drop more points our opponents will catch up with us.

The more we get the maximum points, the more relaxed we become.”
