"At Highlanders every week there's pressure. Everyone expects you to win because you are a big club and that puts pressure.
"My players understand the pressure we face week in week out and that's why we try to win every game, but it's not easy as we have to work hard".
"As it is, we're at the top and I'll be lying if I say I don't feel the pressure. I feel it (pressure) and we've to make this positive pressure, work on playing good football and do well,"said Akbay.
Highlanders sit on 12 points from five matches, two points clear of second-placed Ngezi Platinum Stars, who have played a game more.
Tomorrow Highlanders take on Chapungu in Gweru.
The army side have been on a poor run having only managed two draws and are winless so far this season.
