Trucha wants derby to be AFC Leopards' turning point

AFC Leopards hosts arch rivals Gor Mahia FC in the biggest game of the Kenyan football calendar this weekend, the Mashemeji Derby. Leopards head coach Thomas Trucha leads his charges into the game as a man under immense pressure, as the club has only won one of its last five matches.

Rivals Gor have just fired their coach, Brazilian Leo Neiva, after losing back to back matches, and with Leopards, nicknamed Ingwe also struggling, there is immense word on the street that Czech tactician Trucha might find himself in a similar situation if he does not get a win in the derby this Sunday.
