Leopards perform at a high level so far being 3rd in the table. Gor Mahia can look both up and down from their 8th position.

Insights:
  • Leopards haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • Gor Mahia have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

The Nairoby derby, also known as the Mashemeji derby and the Ingo-Dala derby is the oldest rivalry in Kenyan football. Both teams see each other as main rivals and have done so since their first meeting in 1968. The rivalry is partly tribal and this adds to the intensity when these teams meet.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
