Kariobangi Sharks will be up against Kenya Police, looking to bounce back from their defeat against Nairobi City Stars in their last game. Hosts Kenya Police, debutants in the FKF Kenyan Premier League, will be looking to scale higher, as they head to this game on 22 points in 10th place. Sharks, meanwhile, are fifth with 28 points. Police are unbeaten in their last 10 matches, but only four of those have produced wins. They have been the most active in the current transfer window, registering top players including Kenyan internationals Elvis Rupia, Francis Kahata and Harun Shakava. In their last five matches, Police have registered three clean sheets, failing to score in each of the three matches. Two of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals, and they’ll be looking to improve on the 0-0 draw with Sofapaka in their last game.

Kariobangi Sharks are coming from a loss, their second in the last five matches. The 1-0 defeat at home to Nairobi City Stars meant Sharks have failed to score in three of their last five matches. They lacked their usual sharpness in attack, with the absence of Eric Mmata, while Sidney Lokale has since left to join KCB, in one of the key departures at the club. Long-serving skipper Eric Juma and defender Geoffrey Shiveka also left in the current transfer window. Twice in the last four matches, Sharks have scored three goals and it is this form they’ll want back as they face Police. In their first meeting this season, Sharks suffered a 3-1 loss at the hands of the newly promoted Police FC.
