Joint FKF Premier League leaders Tusker will aim to widen the gap at the top of the table when they face Ulinzi Stars on Saturday at Dandora Stadium.

The brewers are tied on 33 points with Kenya Police, but boast best goal difference, having netted 30 goals so far this season.

A win against Ulinzi could see them move three points clear, adding pressure on the law enforcers, who face a tricky Monday evening fixture away to Mara Sugar.

Ulinzi Stars, currently in 11th place with 22 points, will hope to upset the title contenders and bounce back from their inconsistent form.

Elsewhere, AFC Leopards, fifth on the log, host Murang'a SEAL in a late kick off game at Dandora. Ingwe will look to capitalise on Murang's recent struggles, having won only six matches all season.

Struggling Posta Rangers, rooted at the bottom with 14 points, take on FC Talanta at Kenyatta Stadium, Machakos. Rangers are desperate for a win to reignite their survival hopes, while Talanta will look to build on their mid-table position.

Sundays action begins with Kariobangi Sharks meeting Bidco United in a battle of the strugglers. Sharks, in 14th, and Bidco, in 17th, both need a win to boost their campaigns.

Later, Kakamega Homeboyz will host Gor Mahia at Mumias Sports Complex in a clash between two teams eager to climb the table. Gor Mahia, in fourth with 27 points, will look to break into the top three with a victory.

The Monday showdown pits Kenya Police against Mara Sugar. With both sides in form, this match could be pivotal in determining the league's top spot.
