Trucha is concerned about the potentially “tricky” Kakamega Homeboyz game at the Bukhungu Stadium this weekend.
AFC Leopards coach Tomas Trucha is approaching the upcoming clash with Kakamega Homeboyz at the Bukhungu Stadium with a sense of caution, acknowledging the formidable threat posed by their opponents in what promises to be a highly anticipated Ingokho Derby.
Leopards beat them 2-0 in the first leg at the Nyayo National Stadium, which set the pathway for an impressive run of form of losing none of their last seven league games, with six of those wins.
Speaking after they beat Murang’a Seal 1-0, Trucha revealed that, although his team can maintain their impressive run of form, they need to be wary of Homeboyz considering derbies are emotional and about who turns up better on the day.

FKFPL Former Harambee Stars midfielder Dennis Odhiambo reveals why he came out of retirement with Murang'a Seal
Odhiambo, who was a key part of the Harambee Stars side that took part in the 2019 AFCON in Egypt, has opened up on why he decided to come out of retirement by signing for Murang'a Seal.
“With the help of God, with the performance of the players, we can make it,” Trucha said.
“Don’t ask me where we find ourselves at the end of the league. The next game is Kakamega, Western Derby and I hope the stadium will be fully packed.
“Derbies are unpredictable, you never know, so it is Western derby or Nairobi Derby, there is no favorite team, so we need to be ready.”
Meanwhile, Trucha has maintained his stance on why he thinks that his players are the ones who deserve all the praise for their good run of form and not about what he has done in charge himself.

FOOTBALL Dennis Oliech explains how he would solve unpaid player wage situation if elected FKF president
Oliech has revealed how he will solve the long-standing player-wage problem amongst local-based players in Kenya if elected FKF President.
“Firstly, you have to ask the players, secondly, Tom Juma did not have time to prepare the team because there was little time before the start of the league.
“Maybe I had more time. We had a weekend in Mumias, we had a FIFA break so I tried to make players comfortable, what we are doing, what we are playing, they started to understand what we were doing and how we want to play.”
