What you need to know:
- The sugar millers have 13 points, drawn from four wins and a draw, same as Naivas, who are second due to an inferior goal difference
- Under the tutelage of Leonard Odipo, the Nairobi-based side will be looking for a win to revive their hopes of a quick return to the topflight league after they were relegated last season together with struggling Vihiga Bullets
- Second-placed Naivas FC travel to Kisii County to take on Gusii FC at Cardinal Otunga High School on Sunday, while eighth-placed Luanda Villa will be at Mumboha Grounds to welcome Kajiado FC currently placed fourth
Mara Sugar will look to continue their winning streak when they take on Mathare United at Utalii grounds on Saturday as the National Super League (NSL) enters round six this weekend.
The Narok County outfit thrashed Vihiga Bullets 5-0 last weekend to go top of the league standings while Mathare United lost 3-1 to Mombasa Stars at the coast.
