The Football Kenya Federation Premier League title-chasing trio of Gor Mahia, Kenya Police, and Tusker FC will contend with opposition from struggling outfits in the league round 32 ties set to kick off on Saturday, May 17, 2025.

The match-ups come as welcome reprieves after the trio slipped in the race for the 2025 league honours, slumping to defeats in previous ties.

 Gor were stunned 2-1 by Nairobi City Stars as Tusker and Police FC crashed to 2-0 and 2-1 losses to FC Talanta and Kakamega Homeboyz, respectively.

K’Ogalo will be seeking a return to winning ways on enemy territory with a clash against Murang’a Seal upcoming on May 18, 2025.

The 3:00 pm tie promises to present another potential banana skin for Gor Mahia. The struggling newcomers are showing prospects of resurgence following a managerial change at the club that saw Yussuf Chippo take the mantle at San Sebastian.

Seals stunned Sofapaka in their previous clash to breathe life into their belated quest to avoid the chop, and the club hopes to count on their home advantage against the reigning league champions.

Sinisa Mihic’s charges, who lie on the log five points behind Police FC, will be eyeing improved fortunes after seeing their bid to reclaim the top spot suffer a setback at the hands of City Stars.

Round 32

Week 32 games will kick off on Saturday, May 17, 2025, with Mathare United entertaining Ulinzi Stars at the Dandora Stadium.

The clash will kick off at2:00 pm in the new kick off date.

Meanwhile, Kenya Police will welcome FC Talanta at the Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos on the same day at 4:00 pm.

Police who failed the test of Kakamega Homeboyz on Wednesday, May 14, 2025 clash in Mumias will need to keep wary of Talanta’s giant-killing prowess.

Giant-killers Talanta

Despite their own struggles, Talanta ranks among the season’s bogey teams for the KPL big boys. Their recent win against Tusker which left Brewers’ title charges in tatters, is a testament to it.

Beleaguered Brewers have a date against Sofapaka FC on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at the Dandora Stadium.

Despite their stuttering charge for the title, Charles Okere has maintained that the final run-ins for the league remain within his team’s grasp ahead of the clash against Batoto Ba Mungu.

Additional Sunday ties will see Shabana resume their Gusii turf for a clash against newcomers Mara Sugar.

William Muluya’s Kariobangi Sharks will square off against high-flying Homeboyz.

 The Francis Baraza-coached side is running high on a nine-game unbeaten streak and hoping to add Sharks to their casualties at Dandora Stadium.
