Impala RFC have unveiled matchday squad ahead of the highly anticipated Ngong Road derby against Kenya Harlequin at Impala Club.
The midfield pairing has Raynold Anduvate and Israel Soi while the back three features Derrick Kinyari and Quinto Ongo on the wings, with Meshack Andale marshaling the backfield from fullback.
At halfback, Samuel Muli gets the nod at scrum-half and will link up with Eric Muthama at fly-half in a combination tasked with dictating tempo and territory in the high-pressure encounter.
Up front, Warren Akaranga anchors the front row alongside Onesmus Kinyanjui and Brian Ochieng, forming a scrummaging platform. In the second row, Leon Onduso partners Tyson Okoth, who captains the side from the engine room.
