Gor Mahia vs Tusker FC Prediction: 100th League Derby Decides Title Race

League leaders Gor Mahia (K'Ogalo) host arch-rivals and Tusker FC in a blockbuster FKF Sportpesa Premier League fixture marking the 100th league meeting between Kenya's two most decorated clubs—the most-played fixture in the country's top flight history.

Gor Mahia enters this historic derby with powerful momentum, sitting atop the FKF Premier League table and boasting an almost impeccable defensive record, having conceded only 2 goals in 7 games. K'Ogalo are fresh off a commanding 2-0 victory over Police FC.

Tusker FC, have been steadily climbing the table, but their impressive six-match unbeaten streak was recently snapped by a 2-1 defeat to Kenya Police FC, adding immense pressure to bounce back immediately in this Kasarani showdown.
