Gor will host Egyptian giants Pyramids in their CAF Champions League first qualifying round, first leg match at Nyayo Stadium on Sunday.
Match tickets will retail at Sh300, Sh1000 and Sh3000.
In eight match-ups dating back to 1969, Egyptian sides have always carried the day against Gor Mahia sides.
“The only way to beat them is to prevent them from passing the ball. Their strength is in passing the ball,” says Gor Mahia coach Charles Akonnor.
This is part of the strategy the Ghanaian coach will deploy to try and secure a win against Egyptian giants Pyramids in their CAF Champions League first qualifying round, first leg match at Nyayo Stadium on Sunday from 3pm
