Mogadishu City arrived in Nairobi Friday last week and have been camping in the city ahead of their much anticipated clash against Police. They arrived in Kenya from Tanzania, where they participated in the CECAFA Kagame Cup, where they just about failed to qualify for the semifinals.

The two-legged clash between Mogadishu City and Police will kick off at 4 pm local time.
