Mombasa United target winning start against Kakamega Homeboyz

Mombasa United head coach Abdulhamid Moalim is confident his side will secure victory in their opening Kenya Premier League match against Kakamega Homeboyz tomorrow at the Mbaraki Sports Ground in Mombasa. Mombasa United joins Bandari FC as the only Coast teams in the top league. Coach Moalim says the team is highly motivated after securing promotion to the top flight through the league promotion playoffs. Mombasa United face a litmus test as they join a competitive league after two months of uncertainty due to the playoffs standoff. They secured a 2-1 home victory over Kariobangi Sharks in the first leg of the promotion playoffs, then they were awarded a 2-0 victory in the second leg after crowd trouble caused the match to be abandoned with Sharks leading 2-1.
