This season’s FKF Kenya Premier League ends today Sunday with eight matches scheduled to take place.
All the matches except the one pitting Kariobangi Sharks and Sofapaka will start at 3 PM. The former will start at 12 noon.
The two deciding fixtures will see leaders Tusker host Bidco United as second placed KCB visit Nairobi City Stars.
KCB will need to win by at least a six goal margin and hope that Tusker lose their match in order to overturn the tables. Tusker enjoy a 3-point and 7-goal advantage over the Bankers.
Tusker were handed the mandate to represent Kenya in the CAF Champions League on June 30th by virtue of topping the league that was delayed due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Western Stima have already kissed the league bye having managed only 22 points from 31 matches.
Vihiga United have completed their fixtures garnering 26 points which will enable them play in a promotion playoff finals with a National Super League side to fill the 18th slot in the Premier League.

The prize for league winners is Kshs 5M and another 5M to be shared among the other teams participating.
The winners will be the first to lift the revamped FKF PL trophy that costed the organizers close to 5.5M.
It is made of pure gold and stands at 80cm and weighs 11kgs.
FKF Trophy
During the unveiling of the trophy end of July this year, Football Kenya Federation President Nick Mwendwa lauded the organizers for coming up with such a trophy which he said it depicts our Kenyan culture.
He said, “This trophy is symbolic that we want to be number one. It is one of the most unique in the world.”
However, a section of football fans have critized Mwendwa for the design and cost of the trophy that was assembled in the United Arab Emirates.
