Golden boot hopeful Benson Omalla will be seeking to continue with his fine form when Gor Mahia entertain Bidco United in the FKF Premier League match set to be played at Nyayo Stadium on Sunday from 3pm.
Omalla who has netted 18 goals has already surpassed Elvis Rupia's 17 goals he scored during the 2020-2021 season to finish runners up.
The former Western Stima striker is six goals shy of Eric Kapaito's 24 goals the former Kariobangi Sharks striker scored in the 2020-2021 season.
Gor Mahia have beaten Bidco United in all their six encounters in the league since they were promoted in the 2020/21 season.
K'Ogalo have dropped four points in the last two matches following their defeat to Mathare United (2-1) and draw against Nzoia Sugar (2-2).
