Venue: Muhoroni Stadium (3000 seats)

Struggling Chemelil will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying KCB in the upcoming league round. It’s 18th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Chemelil and KCB.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting KCB have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 6-7-14 (win-draw-loss) from 27 matches.

Chemelil form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Chemelil, who have the most conceded goals (46) in Premier League, have only managed 0 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses from their games here at Muhoroni Stadium. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Chemelil fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Kariobangi Sharks game long ago, can be stopped today.

A good away victory last time out for Chemelil, who won 1-0 against Nzoia United (placed 15th). Preceding that match was the home game against Tusker that was lost 0-7.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Chemelil, as the Premier League home game vs Gor Mahia is only three days away.

Chemelil have scored 5 league goals here from 7 matches, not a lot. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Chemelil have let the opposition score 22 times, an average of more than three per game.
