Tusker hope to move up the log as they host newcomers Nakumatt


Tusker will hope to ease a difficult start to the 2017 season when they host newcomers Nakumatt in the seventh round of the Sportpesa Premier League (SPL). After opening the season with two straight defeats, the beermen of Ruaraka are unbeaten in the last four though three of those are draws.
 The defending champions’ last match will offer them alot of encouragement as they take on a side that have lost three of their six matches played so far, two of those defeats coming while playing away to Bandari and Kariobangi Sharks.

 Tusker were expected to lose to an inform Gor Mahia in their last match but came away with a draw. Their two matches before the Gor tie were against heavyweights Ulinzi and Sofapaka but they emerged with decent 1-1 and 2-2 draws respectively. The last three results will surely have boosted their confidence and Nakumatt might suffer the consequences. This will be the first meeting between the clubs and a 2-0 win to Tusker might be on the cards
