Struggling Vihiga United will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Tusker in the upcoming league round. It’s 17th vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Tusker 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 Bandari. 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.
