Kenya coach Twahir Muhidin has named a 19-man squad to face Morocco

Kenya captain Musa Otieno is back in his country's squad to face Morocco in a 2006 World Cup qualifier in Rabat on Wednesday.

Otieno missed the Harambee Stars 2-1 win over Guinea in their last World Cup qualifier in November through an injury sustained while playing for his South African Club Santos.

"I'm psyched up for the match," Otieno said.

"Morocco are among the giants in Africa but we can beat them, they're not invincible."

Muhidin has named several other regulars in his squad including striker Dennis Oliech, John Baraza, Tom Juma and goalkeeper Duncan Ochieng.

However two players not included in coach Twahir Muhiddin's 19-man squad are Denmark-based Emmanuel Ake and Philip Opiyo who plays in South Africa.

Both Kenya and Morocco have six points in Group Five of the qualifiers, two points behind leaders Guinea.

However the Harambee Stars have only played three games as opposed to Morocco's four matches.

Kenya squad:

Goalkeepers: Duncan Ochieng (Mathare United), Victor Onyango (Tusker)

Defenders: Musa Otieno (Santos, South Africa), Zablon Amanaka (Kenya Pipeline), Edwin Mukenya (Tusker), Hussein Mohammed (Ulinzi), Pascal Ochieng (Yanga, Tanzania), Andrew Oyombe (Enkoting, Sweden)

Midfielders: Tom Juma (Friska Viljor, Sweden), Ahmed Breik (Mumias), McDonald Mariga (Kenya Pipeline), Titus Mulama (Mathare United), Mike Mururi (Chemelil), Mahmoud Ali (Dubai Bank)
