In the backs, Lincoln Njagi continues at scrum-half with Johnson Wafula at fly-half, maintaining the half-back pairing that impressed in the quarterfinals.
Ken Wafula stays on the left wing, while Clement Ashila partners Mark Demba in midfield, with Demba taking over the number 13 jersey as Brayan Livoi shifts to the right wing. Anderson Oduor remains at fullback to anchor the backline.
Zetech whipped KCA 50-19 to reach the semis last weekend and will be eyeing a place in the final of the competition.
