‘Egypt will never play on Wednesday’ – FKF’s Mwendwa claims Caf will favour Harambee Stars' rivals

Football Kenya Federation president Nick Mwendwa has alleged Confederation of African Football (Caf) will favour Egypt when scheduling their next Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Harambee Stars.

Mwendwa claims the Pharaohs will not be scheduled to play on a Wednesday by Caf and that amounts to preferential treatment.

Kenya will face Egypt at home in one of the remaining Group G qualifiers - a match the East Africans must win in order to keep their slim qualification dream alive.
