Defending champions Tusker will hope to put behind them their first defeat of the season at the hands of Bandari last weekend as they welcome Nzoia Sugar in an FKF Premier League match to be played at Ruaraka Grounds on Saturday.
The Brewers lost 2-1 to Bandari at the coast and will face a daunting task to stop Nzoia who have not lost a match in their last seven matches (won five and drawn two).
Tusker, on 18 points, leads second-placed Nzoia by just a point and cannot afford another loss.
The sugar millers head into the game as underdogs having failed to beat Tusker in their last six league matches. The last time they reigned supreme over the brewers was on March 2, 2019.
In Western, Kakamega Homeboyz will be seeking to continue their good run against Gor Mahia when they welcome the record Kenyan champions at Bukhungu Stadium.
Homeboyz who are sixth on the log have lost once against Gor in their last three matches and went unbeaten against the former champions during the botched 2021-2022 season.
Homeboyz however are heading into the game behind a winless run of three matches, a form which might cost them considering Gor Mahia's near perfect start that places them fifth with two games in hand.
Furthermore, K'Ogalo have inform striker Benson Omalla who is scoring for fun in the 2022-2023 season.
Omalla leads the race for the Golden Boot in the Premier League with six goals.
Nzoia striker Boniface Munyendo is the league's second top scorer with five goals, while Tusker's Ugandan forward Deogratious Ojok has four goals.
In Muhoroni, Wazito will welcome AFC Leopards at Muhoroni Stadium aiming to collect their second win of the season as Kenya Police play Ulinzi Stars at Kasarani.
