Leopards on the other hand are yet to taste defeat at the Nyayo National Stadium. Since returning to Nyayo Stadium late last year, the team has enjoyed a relatively good run with the worst outcome at the venue being draws.Kenya Police will welcome back defender Harun Shakava who sat out of the first leg through injury but Leopards have bigger problems.
