Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Champions National Cereals and Produce Board face University of Eldoret \u2018Pippers\u2019 in a Kenya Handball Federation match at Nyayo Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Leaders NCPB remain unbeaten, with maximum 26 points, and are once again the team to beat in this year\u2019s title race.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just take it as another challenge. We don\u2019t take anything for granted and we are prepared for the game and all players are focused on this match,\u201d said NCPB coach Dan Eshikumo<\/p>\n

The Eldoret-based students are on a four-match tour of the city. They open the weekend with matches against Nairobi City Council (NCC) and Buccaneers. They will also play third-placed Black Mamba \u2014 who have 20 points \u2014 having lost two of the 13 games played so far.<\/p>\n

Strathmore University who are placed fifth with 18 points must not loose more grounds to the top three when they entertain Boomerang.<\/p>\n

In the women\u2019s matches, champions Nairobi Water Queens \u2014 who are unbeaten from 12 ties \u2014 tackle Daystar University.<\/p>\n

It will be a bust weekend for Bungoma-based Rangers who have four matches lined up. They start with Hope and NCC on Saturday and then battle Daystar and Rising Star on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (Jkuat) face Boomerang \u2014 who are also scheduled to battle Technical university of Kenya (TUK).<\/p>\n
