Kabras Sugar and KCB have served up entertaining clashes ever since their first Kenya Cup clash close to a decade ago,
Some of these clashes have determined the destination of league title, others have served up opportunities for the vanquisher to lord it over the vanquished.
Saturday 18 February 2023 serves up another episode of this long standing rivalry when the two sides clash at the KCB Sports in Ruaraka in what is without a doubt the highlight fixture on Kenya Cup Match Day 10.
These two sides are in fine form heading into this clash. KCB are top of the log on 45 points, having registered nine bonus point wins in nine consecutive league outings to date.
Defending champions Kabras Sugar are second on the log on 44 points, also having won nine from nine but have collected one less bonus point, and have conceded the least amount of points this season.
They both warmed up for this clash, a probable final before the final, with massive victories on Match Day 10.
KCB won on the road, defeating hosts Menengai Oilers 62-15 in Nakuru as Kabras Sugar registered a 47-6 home victory over Strathmore Leos in Kakamega.
The last meeting between the two sides took place at the same venue 51 weeks ago, KCB winning that clash 28-20 on 26 February 2022. Kabras would, despite the loss, proceed to win the 2021/22 Kenya Cup title.
