The Sugar-men are currently top of the table having won all three of their opening matches.
Title hopefuls Kabras Sugar will be out to extend their imperious form in the 2021/2022 Kenya Cup campaign when they take on a winless and pointless Resolution Impala Saracens in their fourth game of the season scheduled for Impala Grounds on Saturday afternoon.
Three games in, Kabras are already top of the log having secured maximum point wins in their opening matches and it is that record that the Jerome Muller-coached outfit will want to keep intact on their first outing in Nairobi.
To ensure that is done, the South African head coach has made four changes to the starting squad ahead of the game. Kenya Simbas playmaker Jone Kubu is set for his first start of the season and he will don Jersey 10 with last season's highest points scorer Ntabeni Dukisa dropping to the bench.

Thomas Simiyu heads back to the starting line-up with Kevin Wekesa paving the way. Eugene Sifuna keeps his number two role and he is joined by Ephraim Oduor and Hillary Mwanjilwa in the front row with Emmanuel Were and Asuman Mugerwa giving way.
On the other hand, although a tough ask, Impala, who are 10th on zero points, will be hoping to get their season up and running when they take on the sugarmen.
