The Brewers are seeking a strong start at home to boost their chances of reaching the group stage.

Since Gor Mahia in 2018, Nairobi United became the first team to make the group stage of Continental club football last season.

Tusker, who reached the final of the CAF Cup Winners Cup in 1994 will want to emulate them.

The FKF Cup champions host Singida in the first leg of the second preliminary round at Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi today, with kick-off set for 3pm, knowing that victory over the two legs will take them closer to the continental competition’s lucrative group stage.
