In Machakos, Posta Rangers will host Bidco United in the lunchtime kickoff, with Tusker facing Murang'a SEAL thereafter.

Mathare United vs Kakamega Homeboyz

10th-placed Mathare United will play host to fifth-placed Kakamega Homeboyz in the first match of the day at Dandora Stadium from 1300 hrs.

Both teams go into the match on equal form having won three, drew one and lost one in their last five league matches.

The first-leg meeting between the two sides on 15 September ended in a barren draw.

Sofapaka vs Kariobangi Sharks

The other match at Dandora Stadium will see Sofapaka face off with Kariobangi Sharks from 1600 hrs.

Sofapaka, who are having a much better season as compared to last season, are ninth on the log, and will be out to improve on their last three results that ended in draws by getting maximum points against Sharks.

Sharks, on the other hand, are on a four-match winless streak including three consecutive losses in their last matches, and will be targeting a win that would push them up the log from their current 12th position.

When the two sides met at the same venue in the first leg, Sofapaka grabbed a 2-1 win.

Posta Rangers vs Bidco

The battle against relegation will take center stage when Posta Rangers welcomes Bidco United at Kenyatta Stadium, Machakos from 1300 hrs.

Posta are 15th on the log, just a place above relegation zone with 31 points, three more than their opponents Bidco United.

A win for Posta would open the gap between them and the danger zone, while a win for Bidco would draw them level to their hosts.

Posta produced a comeback to win 3-1 when the two teams met in the first leg on 27 November.

Tusker vs Murang'a Seal

Tusker hosting Murang'a Seal at Kenyatta Stadium from 1600 hrs is the biggest match and highlight of the day.

The Brewers are third on the log with 52 points and chasing the title, while Seal are 16th on the log with real danger of relegation.

The Charles Okere-coached side will be keen to get back to winning ways in the third time of asking, while Seal will be encouraged by their last two wins, including progress to the Mozzart Bet Cup Semi finals.

The first leg meeting on 1 December ended 3-1 in favor of Tusker.
