KCB welcome Western Stima in a pulsating encounter which would have a high impact in the Kenyan Premier League standings. KCB come into this fixture with full confidence after getting all 3 points in each of their last two games and are unbeaten in their last 7 games with their last defeat coming as far back as November against Western Stima, a game they lost by a solitary goal in November.
Scoring has not been an issue for KCB so far on the road. Their last game against Chemelil Sugar saw them put up yet another impressive performance as they swept aside their opponents 3-0 on the night. KCB have scored an outstanding total of 24 goals in their last 10 games.
On the other hand, Western Stima would be looking to bounce back from their 3-2 loss against Ulinzi Stars in their last game. Prior to that, they were on a four-game winning streak and 7 games unbeaten run. Like their counterparts, Western Stima is a free-scoring side but they have found it difficult to keep clean sheets in all of their last six games. They are currently sixth with 30 points and a win would take them a place up just above KCB who are currently in 32 points.
