Harambee Stars will take on the Chipolopolo of Zambia today at the Moi International Kasarani for a final group A encounter, which is a must-win contest for Kenya to guarantee a top spot and a slot in the last 8.

The match will kick off at 3 pm and will be played simultaneously with the DRC vs Morocco in a winner-takes-all fixture at Nyayo Stadium.

Kenya, which leads the group on 7 points, needs a draw against Zambia to qualify for the last 8 stage, while a draw in the Morocco vs DRC match will see the North Africans qualify.

Morocco and DRC are tied on 6 points, but the Atlas Lions have a superior goal difference against the Leopards heading to today’s match.

The winners of the group will host Madagascar in the quarter-final contest, while the 2nd-placed team will take on Tanzania on the 22nd of this month for the first two quarter-finals.
