Harambee Stars will welcome Gabon in their FIFA 2026 World Cup Qualifiers match against Gabon this evening. This will be a very tough game owing to the fact that Gabon is equally a very formidable side and a tough opponent as well.
There are however very many reasons as to why Harambee Stars will make Kenyans proud today by winning the match and collecting all the three available points. The match will be played at the Nyayo National Stadium and this is a very great motivation to the players and the fans.
Harambee Stars have been playing their home matches away from home and to be specific, in Uganda. They will for the first time after over two years play in their home soil with the support of the Kenyan fans. The fans have already demonstrated how they will fully support the team because they had bought all the tickets by Saturday. This is a great motivation to the team because, they are assured of the support of the fans.
Harambee Stars also have a new Coach and this will be his first home game in charge of the team. The players will definitely do their best and make sure that they deliver a win for him in his first game in charge at home.
Benni Mcarthy showed his resilience when he made some substitutions that really impacted the game positively when the team played against Gambia on Thursday. There are a lot of hopes in him that he will surely deliver and help Harambee Stars to get all the three points.
His starting lineup for this game also speaks a lot and it means that he is going for nothing but a win. He has dropped Brian Mandela from the starting lineup and has picked Johnstone Omurwa to replace him. He has also dropped Eric Omondi and John Avire and he has introduced William Lenkupae and Mohammed Bajaber in the attack.
This is a clear indication that he is going for nothing but a win in the game. The players are also not afraid of their stars like the former Arsenal Captian Pierre Emerick Aubameyang.
