Coast representatives in the FKF National Super League, Coast Stima and Modern Coast Rangers will be in action at Mbaraki Sports Club on Saturday in an attractive looking double header.

Coast Stima host newly formed Kisumu AllStars at 3pm. The match will be preceded by the clash between Modern Coast Rangers and KCB from 12.30pm.

Stima, who are in their first season in the NSL, opened their campaign by holding Green Commandos one-all at Bukhungu Stadium in Kakamega last weekend while Kisumu All Stars settled to a barren draw with St Joseph of Nakuru at Moi Stadium.

Coast Stima are placed eighth and Kisumu in 11th on the 20 team NSL standing.

Rangers made a false start in the league following a 2-0 loss to relegated Kenya Premier League side, Western Stima at Moi Stadium and will be seeking to bounce back against the bankers who earned three easy points when Muhoroni Youth failed to turn up at Camp Toyoyo.

KCB are placed second on the table while Rangers are placed third last.

The match was initially set for Bomu Stadium but rescheduled to Mbaraki due to unavailability of the former venue.

Modern Coast Rangers beat FKF Mombasa sub-branch league champions Bandari Youth FC 4-0 during a friendly match at Mbaraki Sports Club in preparations for the match.

In other matches set for this weekend, newly promoted Green Commandos will be in Naivasha on Saturday to face Nairobi Stima at Karuturi grounds from 3pm.

Former KPL side Nakuru All Stars welcome newcomers Kangemi All Stars at Afraha Stadium while Bidco United and Kibera Black Stars face-off in Thika also on Saturday.

On Sunday, Western Stima and Ushuru battle at Moi Stadium while FC Talanta welcome Nairobi City Stars at Camp Toyoyo.
