Xavier urges AFC Leopards defenders to be firm against Gor Mahia in derby

Former AFC Leopards midfielder Francis Xavier has pointed out defense as an area of concern ahead of the Mashemeji Derby against Gor Mahia on Sunday.

Xavier has urged the club’s defenders to employ extra caution when they will be facing their Kenyan Premier League (KPL) arch-rivals Gor Mahia as they look to end their recent poor run in the derby.

Ingwe have conceded 34 goals so far and have scored 30 and that shows where Xavier’s fear stems from. Against Gor Mahia, they have let in six goals and scored just one in the last three matches.
