Kakamega Homeboyz Held by KCB as Police FC Fall to Shabana

By Francis Onyach - Reporter

Kenya, 30 November 2025 - The FKF Premier League title race tightened further over the weekend after Kakamega Homeboyz were held to a draw, while Police FC suffered a narrow defeat to Shabana; a combination of results that allowed Gor Mahia to remain top of the table on goal difference.

Kakamega Homeboyz came into their fixture needing a win to keep pressure on the league leaders, but they were frustrated by KCB throughout this tightly contested match.

Despite dominating long spells of possession and creating the better chances, Homeboyz struggled to break down a disciplined opponent. The draw sees them lose valuable ground in the race, although they remain firmly within touching distance of the top.

In one of the weekend's surprises, Shabana edged out Police FC in a lively clash. Police, who have been strong contenders this season, were undone by a combination of defensive lapses and Shabana’s energetic counterattacking play. The loss is a setback for Police FC, who had the opportunity to close the gap on Gor Mahia.

Shabana, fighting to climb away from the lower end of the table, showed resilience and seized their chances, earning a victory that moved them fourth and could prove crucial for their survival push.

With both of their closest challengers either drawing or losing, Gor Mahia remain at the summit of the FKF Premier League. Although tied on points at the top, K’Ogalo holds the advantage on goal difference, keeping them in the driver’s seat as the season continues.

Charles Akonnor’s men will know the margins are razor-thin, and consistency will be essential if they are to fend off Homeboyz, Police FC, and other emerging challengers.

The latest results underline how unpredictable this season has become. Every match now carries major implications, and slight missteps could swing the title race dramatically in either direction.

Gor Mahia may still be top, but the pressure is far from over, and with Homeboyz and Police both expected to bounce back, the battle for the FKF Premier League crown is heating up fast.
