Naibois will face fellow league newbies APS Bomet after the international break even as the two clubs manifest different fortunes to life in the top tier.
The reigning Mozzart Bet Cup champions have had an impressive start to the league where they are currently third on the log standings with 12 points, four shy of league leaders Gor Mahia and with a game in hand.
The law enforcers on the other hand have had a poor start and are currently rooted bottom of the league.
Ahead of the two teams meeting, Muyoti has disclosed some of the aspects that he will be working on with his team.
“We have been conceding easy goals like the second one against Sharks through a set piece and I think our set piece coach will work on that,” said Muyoti.
Despite scoring four goals against Kariobangi Sharks in their last match, Naibois’ defense allowed two goals from their opponents, much to the concern of the former Nairobi City Stars tactician.
“It (conceding goals) has given us a plan for training over the next week. We have to make our defense tight. Conceding goals is one of the areas that has been letting us down and without our strikers’ reaction, we would be in trouble,” he added.
With the team now amongst the table toppers, pundits have tipped them to challenge for the league title but Muyoti was coy on the matter.
“For us, we are taking one game at a time as we try to build confidence in the team and then maybe see how it turns out towards the end of the season,” he added.
After misfiring against Sofapaka on 1 November, Naibois responded by scoring seven goals in their last two matches, something that pleased the former Kakamega Homeboyz coach.
“I am very happy with the goals. It was a challenge I had given to our strikers and I am glad with how they have responded. I hope they continue with that form. As you know, it is difficult to win matches without scoring," the tactician concluded.
