Forward Kelvin Etemesi and fullback Calvin Masawa are two of four changes made as Nairobi City Stars plot for host team Nzoia Sugar in a fifth-round 2022-23 FKF Premier League tie in Sudi Stadium on Saturday 17 December 2022 starting 3 pm.

The two are joined in the traveling squad by goalkeeper Stephen Njunge and flyer Daniel Dante Odhiambo.

Etemesi, a topflight debutant in the season-opener against Bidco United, missed out on the last three games against Tusker, FC Talanta, and Posta Rangers, while Masawa and Njunge missed out on selection in the last two ties. Dante was rested in the last one against Rangers.

Etemesi is in to replace Ronney Kola, while Odhiambo takes up the place of winger Samuel Kapen. Masawa is in for Herit Mungai as Njunge takes up the place of fellow keeper Jacob Osano.
