Kenya play Kyrgyzstan on June 6, three days after the Tajikistan game that opened their June window. At this stage of the trip, McCarthy has seen his first team in action, identified who performed and who did not, and now gets the chance to look at the depth of his squad in the second game. Kyrgyzstan are ranked below Kenya and play at home where their organisation is strong but their individual quality is limited. This is a game Kenya should win without drama.

The question for Kenyan betting fans is not whether Kenya win. It is how they win and who scores. McCarthy needs to see his goalscorers make decisions in front of goal with confidence. The Central Asia window was chosen specifically to give fringe players and new faces meaningful minutes. If a debutant scores in either of these two games, the price on them to score in the AFCON 2027 qualifiers in September becomes very attractive before that market is properly set. Watch the teamsheet for new names and back them early.

Our Prediction and Tips

Kenya win 2-0. Clean sheet. New faces involved. The home win market on Kenya is the anchor bet and it should be comfortably short. The over 1.5 goals total market adds value alongside it.
