Kakamega Homeboyz vs Gor Mahia predictions

Prediction 1: Gor Mahia to win

We would like to start by pointing out that these teams clashed in the Kenyan Super Cup just last month, and it was Gor Mahia that came out on top. Interestingly, the visitors have put up a solid run of results these past few weeks, winning four of their last five games in all competitions. In contrast, Kakamega Homeboyz have struggled to find their stride lately; as they suffered four losses in their last six games. It's also worth mentioning that Gor Mahia have held their own against Kakamega Homeboyz in recent years, losing just four times in their last 18 encounters. All things considered, we are leaning towards a Gor Mahia victory.

Prediction 2: BTTS – no

For our second Kakamega Homeboyz vs Gor Mahia prediction, let's explore the BTTS market. One of these teams failed to score the last two times Gor Mahia visited this stadium. We've already established that Kakamega Homeboyz lost four of their last six matches. They've also struggled in front of goal, failing to score in three of those games. That said, we are fairly confident that one of these teams will keep a clean sheet.

Prediction 3: Under 2.5 total goals

Kakamega Homeboyz and Gor Mahia have squared off against each other a fair few times, and those meetings have mostly been on the low-scoring side. As a matter of fact, four of the last five skirmishes between these sides featured less than three goals. In the same vein, both teams have been involved in a lot of low-scoring matches these past few weeks. Six of Kakamega Homeboyz's last eight matches went below the 2.5 goal line, three of Gor Mahia's last four games too. On that note, we shouldn't expect many goals in this match.

Kakamega Homeboyz recent form

Kakamega Homeboyz halted their winless streak with a 2-1 victory over Tusker last weekend; they had no wins in five prior matches, with a draw and four losses. As Gor Mahia come visiting, it'll be interesting to see if Kakamega Homeboyz can string up back-to-back wins for the first time this season.

Gor Mahia recent form

On the other hand, Gor Mahia have enjoyed some fine form these past few weeks; they are currently on a five-match unbeaten run, with four wins and a draw. The visitors will look to extend that run to six matches as they take on an out-of-form Kakamega Homeboyz side.
