The Football Kenya Federation Premier League side will return for week 16 actions spread from Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday at different venues.

After an unlikely win over second-placed Kakamega Homeboyz, AFC Leopards will be hosted by Murang’a Seal. Seal had a solid campaign in the opening 10 weeks, but after two consecutive losses against Police and Bandari, they dropped out of the top five.

Facing AFC Leopards gives them a chance to fight for a statement win. Should they overcome the 1998 Premier League champions, the top-flight debutants would have downed a traditional club in the league, and this will give their campaign a new impetus.

On the other hand, AFC Leopards will fight for a consecutive season win after what was seen as an unlikely victory over Homeboyz in the Ingo derby.

Tomas Trucha and his charges will want a win to climb the ladder after spending most of the season below the 15th position.

Sofapaka and Muhoroni Youth are set to clash in Muhoroni, while Tusker, who came out 2-0 winners over Nzoia Sugar in the previous game, will host Police FC.

On Thursday, four matches have been scheduled to take place, with KCB and Nzoia Sugar battling at the Police Sacco Pavilion in South C. Bidco and Shabana will meet at Thika Stadium, and this is a chance for Tore Bobe to register yet another victory after a huge one over Sofapaka.

FC Talanta have been lined up to play their match at Machakos Stadium.

Two matches will take place on Friday, with Kakamega Homeboyz playing host to Nairobi City Stars.

Gor Mahia in Machakos

Gor Mahia will be at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos for their match against Mapinduzi Cup-bound Bandari.

This is a chance for Gor Mahia to widen the gap at the top after stretching it to four points during week 15.

Losses by Posta Rangers and Kakamega Homeboyz gave K’Ogalo a perfect chance to solidify their position at the top.
