The visiting KCCA side should be favourites in this visit to Bright Stars, as the away team holds a 22 point advantage from their 16 league games this season.

Bright Stars form and stats

Bright Stars's struggle is real here with only 9 points collected from 9 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-3-4.

The Bright Stars supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host BUL in Premier League and win 1-0. Preceding that match was the home game against Police that was lost 0-1.

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

The lack of attacking qualities in Bright Stars means that they have only scored 4 goals in 9 league home games, less than half a goal per match. From these home matches, Bright Stars have conceded only 7 goals.
