Ulinzi Stars will be back at home to face KCB in their next Kenyan Premier League game both seeking to rise from losses. Going into this game, the hosts are 15th while KCB are seventh. A paltry 17 points from as many matches have Ulinzi Stars as underdogs coming into this game. It has been a poor season for the Soldiers and this game finds them just three points off the relegation zone. They are only above the relegation playoff position by virtue of a superior goal difference. Ulinzi Stars are coming from a third straight loss, having fallen 1-0 to AFC Leopards in their last outing. They’ve failed to score in the last two matches and are winless in four straight games. Ulinzi Stars’ last eight matches have returned just a win; they’ve lost six times in that period. Three of their last four matches have had under 2.5 goals. At home, Ulinzi Stars have suffered four straight defeats.

KCB haven't beaten Ulinzi Stars in their last four meetings but the last three ended in draws. Their last meeting ended 1-1 and the Bankers will want to do better here. KCB coach Bernard Mwalala will be keen to beat his immediate former employer to also steady his rocking ship. In their last outing, KCB suffered a humiliating 5-0 loss to Tusker FC and will want to bounce back here. That was their second straight loss, though they've had a better run compared to Ulinzi Stars. Like Ulinzi Stars, KCB have failed to score in their last two matches, earlier losing 1-0 at home to Nzoia Sugar. Their 2-1 win away to Police remains the only victory in the last five matches. The Bankers are however unbeaten in eight away matches.
