The Kenya cup Rugby Final is the showcase of the domestic campaign. After 16 hard-fought rounds and playoffs followed by exciting semi-finals, it will come down to one final game to decide the Kenyan Rugby 2019 Champions.
The action kicks off in Kakamega on Saturday afternoon at 4 pm, where defending champions, Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) will face Kabras Sugar at the showground arena.
This is the first time Kakamega hosts a rugby final. It is expected that fans from across Kenya will come together to enjoy the final game of the season.
Into yet another final, Kabras stands alone as the most successful club in the league having reached the last four finals, winning only one in the 2015/2016 when they beat Impala Saracens.
On the other hand, KCB managed to make their third final in the last four years. Having won it back to back and are now looking to defend their crown. Interestingly, KCB won all the last three cup finals against Kabras.
Perhaps boasting a psychological advantage against Kabras, KCB will have to dig deep this time around. Kabras have been a force to reckon with this season winning 15 games and loosing once just like their counterparts KCB.
Kabras have, however, showed they have goals in them and have recorded huge wins this season.
With everything on the line, it will be an action-packed finale, but a loss to Kabras will be tough to recover from.
