"Scoring many goals in a single game means the players gain confidence and it comes at a time [when] we have a tough match to end the season.
"Gor will come with minds focused on coronation but we shall be up to collect three points," he told Nation.
The millers’ 10th win in the current campaign lifted them to position 10 on the 18-team log with 42 points, 17 ahead of bottom-placed Muhoroni who host GOtv Shield champions AFC Leopards in the last round.
