The second row will have Reagan Juma making way for Leo Opiayo who will partner with Nick Ongeri, who has started in all matches for the team this year.

In the back row, George Ooro, who is a Kenya 7s player, will make his second start, alongside Gabriel Ayimba and Dennis Mbila who will retain their positions.

Arnold Muita will play at scrum-half, with Stephen Osumba moving from midfield to fly-half to replace Gideon Makumi. Shem Okola has been moved to inside centre, while Richard Liva has shifted from left wing to play in the midfield.
