All Stars escaped relegation by a whisker as they finished 16th in the 18-table Kenyan Premier League (KPL) team in their maiden season. Vihiga, who were relegated from KPL in the 2018 season, are plotting a comeback.
They are participating in the play-offs after finishing third in NSL behind leaders Nairobi City Stars and Bidco who earned automatic promotion to the BetKing Premier League.
Vihiga United coach Sammy Okoth has promised to unleash full attacking force against Kisumu All Stars in Wednesday’s return leg of the end of the season Kenyan Premier League-cum-National Super League play-off.
The tactician is confident that the National Super League (NSL) side will overturn the 2-1 defeat they suffered against their opponents last Saturday at Mumias Sports Complex in Kakamega County.
