ATHLETICS It's a world record!!!Faith Kipyegon cruises to victory at Diamond League Meeting in Florence
She clocked 3:49.11 to cut the tape ahead of Great Britain’s Laura Muir.
The Robert Matano-coached outfit are opting to take it a step at a time, as they stare at a realistic chance of winning a first double of league and cup since 2016.
They will be coming to this match on the back of a solid run of form, having gone unbeaten in each of their last 17 games.
The brewers have found the net 39 times and conceded 20 goals this season. They have a goal difference of 19, which is inferior to their close title challengers Gor Mahia, who have a goal difference of 27.
However, they have mastered the art of keeping clean sheets as from their 31 games, they have not conceded in 18 of them. Wazito will, therefore, have their work cut out to beat that defence, although they are also on a strong run of form.

FOOTBALL “I only earned Ksh.9000 a month at Tusker!” Allan Wanga slams negligence of Kenyan players welfare
The former AFC Leopards player gives his honest opinion on the state of player welfare Kenyan football.
Since losing to Tusker at the Ruaraka grounds in April, Wazito have pulled off some spirited performances, going unbeaten in five of their last seven games, and sit 16th on the log on 23 points.
They will need to win to stand a chance of staying in the relegation playoffs, given 15th-placed Nairobi City Stars secured their status as a top flight club when they beat AFC Leopards 2-1 at the Nyayo National Stadium last Monday.
At the Kasarani Annex, Nzoia Sugar will be hoping to get back to winning ways by beating City Stars.
