Nzoia Sugar head coach Bernard Mwalala has admitted that Zoo Kericho have an advantage over his boys ahead of their Wednesday 11 October.
Zoo will be welcoming Nzoia at the Kericho Green Stadium in their rescheduled clash that was earlier slated for September.
Mwalala admits his charges have been out of competitive action for close to two weeks and are therefore disadvantaged in terms of match fitness.
"Zoo played on Saturday and defeated a very good side and I think in terms of match fitness and preparedness they are ahead of us. This match is always some form of derby and them playing at home gives them more advantage as well," he said as quoted by Futaa.
"But we've trained well, the boys are motivated and we will give our best to get something out of the match," he added.
The two sides played to a one-all draw in their first leg encounter staged at Sudi Stadium.
