Match begins: 13:00 (UTC)

Season ticket holders haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Mtibwa Sugar languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting KMC will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Relegation threatens Mtibwa Sugar who should definitely be looking for some points here. KMC are struggling to avoid relegation.
