FKF PL: Talanta, Police to face off at Nyayo Stadium

Kenya Police will be out to pile more misery on struggling FC Talanta when the two teams meet on Saturday afternoon at the Nyayo National Stadium in what will be the only league match of the day.Talanta suffered a late heartbreak against Nzoia Sugar at the Sudi Stadium on Wednesday when Alfred Tanui came off the bench to score the only goal of the match six minutes from time. Police, on the other hand, defeated Bidco United, and they will be hoping to make it three wins in a row when they take on the government-backed side.##NAJAVA_MECA_7234424##The match will, however, be far from straightforward. In the first leg, with the law enforcers flying high, they were forced to settle for a point when the Ken Kenyatta-coached team held them to a one-all draw in Kasarani.Talanta are just five points above Mathare United, who occupy the playoff slot, and they will be desperate to get out of that zone by downing the law enforcers. Police in fifth place are mathematically still in the title race, and a win on Saturday will equally be a welcomed boost for them.The hosts’ defender, Alvin Ochieng, understands the importance of getting the points on Saturday.Round 29 📌Yet another action-packed weekend.Which matches are you looking forward to?#FKFPL pic.twitter.com/Tl3Drnoddk— FKF Premier League (@Officialfkfpl) May 5, 2023 “Against Nzoia, we were unlucky to concede late, and we have to try and do better on Saturday against Police, which is one of the best teams in the league. We do not want to be dragged into relegation, and so we have to try as much as possible to come out of that area, as there are a few matches left before the season comes to an end,” he said.Sunday fixturesUlinzi Stars vs. Nairobi City Stars (Ulinzi Sports Complex)Bandari vs. Vihiga Bullets (Mbaraki Sports Club)Tusker vs. Kakamega Homeboyz (Ruaraka Grounds)AFC Leopards vs. Nzoia Sugar (Nyayo Stadium)Posta Rangers vs. KCB (Thika Stadium)Mathare United v.
