Venue: Moi International Sports Centre

Nakumatt hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 18 points and a 18th position in the Premier League table. Visiting Leopards holds 10th place with 39 pts.

Leopards could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago. That match was played in the comfort of their own home stadium, hosting Gor Mahia. There's been little rest and some travel, but Leopards will do their best.

This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.

Nakumatt form and stats

With 3 wins, 2 draws and 11 defeats from their home games, Nakumatt, who have the fewest points (11) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Nakumatt are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now. They really need to get back to winning ways. The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at Moi International Sports Centre, with the home team losing four in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Chemelil game.

The Nakumatt crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to SoNy Sugar here at Moi International Sports Centre in a Premier League match. Ahead of that match, Nakumatt lost 1-4 at home to Tusker.

The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Kariobangi Sharks in only three days.

Nakumatt has scored 17 goals at home this season, in 16 matches. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Nakumatt have allowed the opposition to score 41 goals here at Moi International Sports Centre.
