This is going to be the first time we are playing them, and I have not taken a keen interest in them. So we have just planned ourselves to play them but there is no inside knowledge regarding the way they play. What I understand is that it is going to be a tough outing but we are ready to push for a positive outcome.
The tactician has further explained the situation in his camp ahead of the meeting with the 2009 league champions. The confidence in the team is high [after the win over Tusker] and the players are ready to get another win, Akhulia added.

Sofapaka are set to welcome back Mohamed Kilume and Michael Bodo ahead of their league assignment against KCB on Wednesday
Batoto ba Mungu will welcome the Bankers in a Football Kenya Federation Premier League at Wundanyi Stadium hoping to get maximum points. The Ken Odhiambo-led side will, however, have to do without Stephen Okola. Kilume has recovered from an ankle injury sustained in our win over Zoo FC, Sofapaka confirmed through their Kilume resumed training Sunday morning with the group and is being assessed ahead of Wednesday s match.
My defenders positioning was also wanting and Sofapaka got their chances and took them. Sofapaka are a good team with a good coach and experienced in the league and we cannot afford to give them easy chances as we did.
In an earlier interview, the former striker expressed his desire to bring on board experienced players, especially at the back, to bolster his team to avoid registering unimpressive results. As I have said on several occasions, many of my players do not have top-tier experience, Iswekha admitted to Goal. Definitely I will bring on board three players to improve the team and ensure we perform well.
After a goalless first half, the hosts, deservedly, scored in the 48th minute.
A good ball to Brian Ochieng found the Thika-based side off guard. The midfielder cut the ball back for Reagan to score what turned out to be the winning goal.
It was the Banker s sixth win in as many matches, and they are now on 18 points while Bidco are ninth on the log with seven points after as many matches.
At Wundanyi Stadium, Mathare United started their league campaign with a 4-2 loss against Sofapaka.
It took Batoto ba Mungu 12 minutes to take the lead when former Gor Mahia midfielder Juma Lawrence beat Job Ochieng from close range.
