AFC Leopards will be looking to get back to winning ways and also start scoring when they host Shabana, who have netted nine goals in their last two games alone.
AFC Leopards will seek to bounce back to winning ways when they host Shabana FC in an FKF Premier League game at Kenyatta Stadium, Machakos on Sunday.
Leopards have recorded three straight draws in as many matches, including the suspended FKF Cup tie against Mara Sugar, which was called off after fan unrest.
What is more, Leopards have not scored a goal during that period, a worrying statistic, that should give Shabana and their fans plenty to be optimistic about.

Gor Mahia is among FKF Premier League clubs alongside the likes of AFC Leopards seeking to have their own stadia on Kasarani land.
Shabana, meanwhile, have scored nine goals and conceded just two in their last two games alone, having hammered Kakamega Homeboyz 4-1 in the FKF Premier League before easing past lower league side Plantech 5-1 in the FKF Cup.
With the midseason signings beginning to show their claws, Tore Bobe walk into the fixture high on confidence and there will be no surprises if they take all three points.
Shabana have already beaten Leopards this season, when they won 2-1 last November, and also taken points off title-chasing Tusker, Gor Mahia and Kenya Police and nothing will faze them against Leopards.
Since their promotion to the top flight last season, Shabana have faced Leopards four times, winning two, one ending in a draw and one loss, in the FKF Cup.
