After failing to clinch the Kenyan Premier League title, Sofapaka have a chance to win the GOtv shield when they play Rangers in Saturday's final at Afraha Stadium in Nakuru. Sofapaka failed to beat Tusker in their last match of the season instead tying 2-2 while league winners Gor Mahia beat KRA 3-0 in Kisumu to retain the title.

While Sofapaka have won the cup twice before, Rangers will be looking for their first ever title and an opportunity to represent the country in next year's Confederations Cup tournament. Sofapaka edged out AFC Leopards in the semi-final while Rangers beat West Sugar to set up a final date.
