Benni McCarthy's first home game in charge of Kenya will be a sold-out affair against Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's Gabon on Sunday.
McCarthy opened his reign on Thursday evening with a 3-3 draw away to Gambia in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier.
The South African will now look to get his first win in front of a sold-out crowd at the 30,000-seater Nyayo Stadium against leaders of Group F.

"Tomorrow (Sunday) is going to be very tough, same Gambia was exceptional tough but the team performed very well, stuck to the plan and it wasn't a lot of time for us to prepare, to put the team together to gel," the South African legend told Pan-Africa Football.
"However, I thought we did very well, and it was very unfortunate not to win the game but we are happy we didn't lose and can take a lot of positives from that performance.
"We are playing a team that is top of the group, and we know it won't be easy, it is good to have the fans back, we know they have not watched their team for a while now, we hope not to disappoint them, we want to pick up from the Gambia.
"I think we finished very strongly and looked like we could have gone on and won the game, but it wasn't to be, so hopefully we can continue with the same momentum (against Gabon) and fight for every ball, for every second of the 90 minutes.
"The players will go out there to do their best and hopefully they can provide the killer blow and get us started off with three points because that is what the fans will deserve against Gabon on Sunday."
