“We expected to sign a contract with a betting firm but the license was withdrawn. We are back to square one,” said Nivaton. In a bid to raise funds for the team, the fans have agreed to pay more in gate charges with the VVIP ticket going for Sh500 while the VIP ticket retailing at Sh200.
Migori Youth hosts Bidco United at Awendo Green Stadium while Mt Kenya and Coast Stima will square it out at Ruaraka Sports ground. Mt Kenya started their campaign in the second-tier league on a losing note last week, succumbing 3-0 to Bidco United.
