Impala travel to Mombasa for final #KenyaCup fixture
Resolution Impala Saracens travel to Mombasa to play Mombasa SC in their final Kenya Cup fixture. Placed 9th at 27 points, 3 points behind Nondescripts and 5 behind Mwamba, the Global Saracens network member will be looking to finish on a high note. Nondies face Mean Machine and have a match abandonment case while Mwamba finishes its assignments in Eldoret
Impala Saracens talisman flyhalf Nato Simiyu is unavailable for the coastal fixtures due to work commitment. Coach Erick Situma has therefore handed Charles Njoroge his first start for the senior Resolution Insurance sponsored side. He also hands former Maseno scrum half Yasah Musa his first senior start at scrum half.
The forwards are unchanged from the unit that demolished Western Bulls last weekend. The rest of the backs are fielded in the manner they ended, before Robert Aringo was substituted in the last quarter. The coastal side tends to be stubborn at home and Impala Saracens will have to be on top of their game to win this clash.
