For the seventh time in the Kenyan Premier League, Nairobi City Stars will host Posta Rangers in a matchday 23 tie to be held at Police Sacco Stadium, South C, on Sunday 9 April 2023 starting 3 pm.
Save for the last game as host to Posta Rangers played at Thika Stadium on 9 Mar 2022, a game the visitors won 2-1, City Stars had drawn all previous five encounters in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2016 and 2021.
Since the last home encounter in Thika in March last year, Posta has since replaced the man who was in charge then- Salim Ali – with John Kamau.
City Stars bench remains the same, with Nicholas Muyoti still in charge.
Both teams come to the game on the back of defeats: City Stars with a 1-0 loss to KCB and Posta Rangers with a 2-0 loss to Homeboyz. Both losses happened at Kasarani Annex on 5 April.
Table wise, City Stars is 16th with 20-points, six behind 13th placed Posta Rangers.
Who wins this one?
