KCB coach Rishadi Shedu has said that his team will aim to maintain their newly found winning ways when they face Nairobi City Stars on Friday at the City Stadium.
This match will be preceded impressive KRA taking on Western Stima.
On Saturday, Muhoroni Youth will welcome Chemelil Sugar at their Muhoroni turf eager to rediscover their long lost winning streak.
KCB were impressive in their previous match last weekend at the same venue where they beat former champions Mathare United 4-0 to secure their third win of the season.
Coach Shedu, who rejoined the team early this season, says that the win was not by chance, but part of a long term plan that is just beginning to take shape.
“That win is part of my plan for the team and my main ambition at the moment is to help KCB crawl out of the relegation zone. We needed to win the match so that we can catch up with the other league teams. We are going to do that one game at a time,” he said.
Shedu, who has in recent times rested goalkeeper Sammy Okinda for new signing Zachary Onyango, also said that he is confident that he has the right calibre of players to achieve his ambition.
Their opponents City Stars are also flirting dangerously with relegation, with their three wins this season leaving them only one spot above the danger zone as the tail end of the season approaches.
