In the weekend of surprises, Kariobangi Sharks lost 2-1 to Kakamega Homeboyz at Camp Toyoyo in another top tier match.

Noah Wafula scored first for the visitors, before Paul Kamau ensured parity moments later. However, it was the Mike Mururi led side that scored the winner courtesy of Hassan Kiyoyo.
