Competition: Kenya Premier League
Date: Wed 15.May
Match begins: 12:00 (UTC)
Venue: Kenyatta Stadium

Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, KCB in 11th and Leopards in 9th place.

Leopards could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at SoNy Sugar. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Leopards play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for Leopards when playing on artificial turf are 0 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat from three matches. They have scored 1 goal and conceded 3 times in these games. These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
