Kamau opts for a twin-striker partnership of Donald Ange and Dennis Okoth
Mathare United will take on Kakamega Homeboyz this afternoon at the MISC Kasarani in the Premier League, and the team news for the 4 pm kickoff has been released.
Mohammed Kilume will not be involved against the Abana Ba Ingo, at least though from the start, as he drops to the bench after contracting a bug during the week. In his place starts Steve Kimari, who is the only change made to the team that started the 1-1 draw with APS Bomet last weekend in Kericho.
Upfront, John Kamau opts again for a twin-striker partnership with Donald Ange and Dennis Okoth tasked with leading our quest for goals. This is Ange’s second start of the season, and he will be hoping to get on the scoresheet also for the first time this campaign.
Mathare are seeking to snap a run of three games without a win that has led to the team dropping out of the top 10 in the standings.
