Kenyan champions Gor Mahia will be hoping to make it two wins from two Caf Confederations Cup group stage games when they take on Petro de Luanda at Estádio 11 de Novembro in Angola on Wednesday.

Kick-off is at 18h00 CAT.

K'Ogalo claimed a massive scalp on matchday one of Africa's second-tier club cup competition, defeating Egyptian giants Zamalek 4-2 in Nairobi earlier this month.

Jacques Tuyisenge bagged a brace and chipped in with an assist for the Kenya's who were pegged back by a brace from Ibrahim Hassan, before second-half goals from Nicholas Kipkirui and Dennis Oliech led them to all three points.

Gor Mahia, though, will be without both Tuyisenge and Oliech for the clash in Angola due to suspension and injury respectively.

Petro fell to a 2-1 loss in their Group D opener with goals from Mohamed Tougai and Walid Allati securing victory for NA Hussein in Algiers. Vladimiro 'Va' Felix's netted what proved to be a mere consolation goal for Os Tricolores.
