High flying KCB arrive at Nairobi City Stars after their 1-1-result versus Leopards. Check out our full preview!
- Nairobi City Stars have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- KCB have the most clean sheets (15) in Premier League
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Premier League game only four days ago.
13-13-14 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for KCB when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 40 matches are 53-45 (scored/conceded).
There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
Relegation threatens Nairobi City Stars who should definitely be looking for some points here. KCB are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
