In the midfield, Bob Muhati and Trevor Odawa form a partnership once again, while Darwin Mukidza returns to the back three alongside Festus Shiasi and Elphas Adunga, with Lionel Ajeliti making way.

KCB cannot surpass Kabras in the standings due to the six-point gap between the two teams. Nonetheless, they will be vying for bragging rights, aiming to improve their recent record against Kabras, having only secured two wins in their last five encounters.
