Kenya, 13 November 2025 - Kenyan football fans are set for a dramatic weekend, as leading teams and those languishing at the bottom fight for vital points beginning Friday, November 14th, 2025, at 4 PM EAT, when KCB invites Bidco United to the Nairobi City Stadium.

Current Form and Table Standings

At the top, Gor Mahia have set the pace, collecting a strong 16 points from seven matches. Chasing closely, Kakamega Homeboyz have 13 points from six matches and have drawn their last two matches. A tightly packed chase featuring AFC Leopards, Tusker FC, Posta Rangers, and Nairobi United, with 12 points each, means every fixture is now important for breaking into the top two and staking a claim in the title race.​

In the bottom 3 sit Kariobangi Sharks 16th, Ulinzi Stars 17th, and APS Bomet 18th.

Key Upcoming Fixtures

While fixture reshuffles have created some uncertainty, fans should look forward to clashes such as Tusker vs Police FC, Bandari vs Sofapaka, and KCB vs Bidco United. This weekend's matches will set the stage for those showdowns, with teams using the time to sharpen their squads and strategies.

Teams expected to win

Gor Mahia: The League leaders could continue their unbeaten run if they maintain momentum against tough opposition.​

Kakamega Homeboyz: Their strong and disciplined style makes them favorites this week, playing away at Mathare United, and fans expect another solid performance as they push for the crown.​

Nairobi United: Having won their last two matches, another win this weekend could lock them in as contenders and keep their fans dreaming.

Tusker FC: With 3 wins and 2 draws in their last five, the brewers will be hoping to get a positive result against Police FC, who come from a disappointing 0-2 loss to League leaders Gor Mahia

Who’s Under Pressure?

APS Bomet: Despite sitting at the bottom with 4 points from the last 4 games, Bomet will be optimistic of getting another fair result, and hopes for a change of fortune.
