Shabana vs Leopards match prediction, 29th October 2025

At Gusii Stadium in Kisii, Shabana will welcome Mathare United for another top clash scheduled for 1400 hrs. The Glamour Boys began the season brightly, winning their opening two matches against APS Bomet and Bandari, but faltered in the next two—drawing with Tusker FC before suffering a 2–1 home loss to the high-flying Posta Rangers. Shabana will be banking on home advantage to overcome the Slum Boys as they continue their quest for what would be their maiden league title. The 2008 league champions, on the other hand, will also be looking to return to winning ways after failing to collect maximum points in their last two matches—a barren draw with Tusker and a 2–1 loss to Kariobangi Sharks. Last season, Mathare were the better side in this fixture, securing a 1–0 win in the first leg before forcing a draw at Gusii.
