Kenya's Harambee Stars travel to Seychelles with a stronger team than their opponents. They will miss out on the services of midfielder McDonald Mariga and lethal striker Mike Baraza due to injury and illness (Malaria) respectively.
The Seychelles started their training this week and will be up for the task, as the majority of their squad is made up of local players, unlike Kenya.
The visitors are out to redeem themselves after the reappointment of Francis Kimanzi as coach, while the Seychelles are in an upbeat mood after being crowned Indian Ocean Island Games champions less than three months ago.
