Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>The Kisii derby between leaders Shabana and Gusii FC at Gusii Stadium will be the highlight of this weekend\u2019s National Super League fixtures. Shabana lead the log with 25 points while Gusii are fourth with 18.<\/p>\n

Shabana coach Sammy Okoth played down the rivalry between the two teams, saying: \u201cIt\u2019s just a game like any other. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a big deal. We shall maintain our game plan as we go for maximum points.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gusii coach, Kassim Junior, said: \u201cDefinitely. It will be a tough match. I\u2019m looking forward to the game. I have known Sammy Okoth for many years, he is my mentor and a highly tactical coach.\u201d He added: \u201cSome of the Gusii players were at Shabana so these are people who know each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both teams have lost one game each. In their last fixtures, Shabana lost 1-0 to Kibera Black Stars On February 8 while Gusii beat the Kibera side by the same scoreline at Gusii Stadium four days later.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Okoth mourned the death of their chairman Nyandoro Kambi. \u201cIt\u2019s a big blow to the team. He was a generous man who used to support the team,\u201d said the tactician.<\/p>\n

A minute of silence will be marked before the game in honour of Kambi, who collapsed and died in Kitengela last week. At Ligi Ndogo, Kibera Black Stars will hope to bounce to winning ways when they face Migori Youth while Vihiga United will welcome SS Assad at Mumias Sports Complex.<\/p>\n

Mwatate United will host fellow strugglers Kajiado FC at Wundanyi Stadium in Taita Taveta while Naivas will tackle Kisumu All Stars at Camp Toyoyo grounds in Jericho.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Coastal Heroes FC will host Mully Children\u2019s Family (MCF) at Mbaraki Sports Club in Mombasa as Mara Sugar face Silibwet Leones at Awendo Green Stadium in Migori.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Murang\u2019a Seal FC will play Darajani Gogo FC at St. Sebastian Park in Murang\u2019a in a rescheduled match Kajiado FC will in action again on Wednesday against Gusii FC Ildamat Stadium in Kajiado.<\/p>\n
