Bandari FC coach Bernard Mwalala is concerned about his team's attacking form ahead of their crucial CAF Confederation Cup return leg tie against Al Ahly Shandy in Khartoum.

The team has struggled to score goals, failing to have a single shot on target in their first leg tie at Kasarani Stadium.

This is not the first time Bandari has struggled to find the back of the net, having failed to win a single match in their Cecafa Kagame Cup debut in Rwanda last month.

Despite the challenges, Mwalala remains hopeful that his strikers can rediscover their scoring power and punish Al Ahly.

"I'm not really worried of our attacking line because there are such moments in football where you can play very well but lack goals. I have trust and faith in my players. I'm confident they will deliver," said Mwalala.

Meanwhile, Gor Mahia is preparing for their Champions League return leg fixture against Aigle Noir, with the first batch of 12 players from the Burundian side arriving in the country yesterday.

The second batch is expected to land today at noon, and the club has introduced e-ticketing for the match, with VVIP tickets retailing at Sh 2,000 and VIP and regular tickets going for Sh 500 and Sh200 respectively.
