First start for Glenn as Kilume returns to first 11
Glenn Odhiambo will start in an offensive role when we take on Tusker FC this afternoon at the Dandora Stadium.
The winger, who rejoined the club in the off-season for a second spell, has already made one appearance, coming on as a substitute in our season opener against Posta Rangers.
He replaces Herit Mungai, who after coming off in our last match against KCB due to an injury, has recovered to make it to the bench.
Kevin Ouru, who was also withdrawn against the Brewers, is fit and keeps his place in goal. John Nyawir drops to left back in an unchanged defence that has Ian Omondi and Francis Kayugi as the centre backs while Sammy Imbuye keeps his place at right back.
The other change made to the starting squad is that of Mohammed Kilume who replaces Jacob Onyango. The experienced Kilume will play alongside Brian Ochieng and Brian Ouru in midfield.
In-form Captain Elli Asieche leads the line once again. The veteran midfielder has started in a false-9 role in both of our games this season and has scored twice. He will have Glenn and Paul Kinyanjui for company on either flanks.
