High-stakes clash awaits this Saturday as league leaders Gor Mahia take on third-placed Shabana at Nyayo National Stadium.

Kick-off is set for 4:15pm in what promises to be a decisive encounter in the title race.

Form guide

Gor Mahia come into the fixture in strong form, fresh off a convincing 3–1 victory over Ulinzi Stars. That result kept us firmly at the summit of the table with 53 points, underlining our consistency as the season enters a critical phase.

Shabana, on the other hand, suffered a 2–1 defeat to Kariobangi Sharks in their last outing — a result that has added pressure ahead of this trip to Nairobi. The situation is further compounded by recent developments off the pitch, with the club parting ways with head coach Peter Okidi.

For coach Charles Akonnor’s side, the objective is clear: maintain momentum and grip at the top. With 53 points, every win edges closer to reclaiming the title.
