• Shabana FC will kick off their 2025/26 FKF Premier League season at Gusii Stadium, facing newly-promoted APS Bomet on September 21.
• Their third fixture, set for Sunday, October 5, will see them travel to face 12-time champions Tusker FC in a high-stakes encounter.
• Shabana will return home to host AFC Leopards on October 26, in what is expected to be one of the most electrifying fixtures of the first half of the season.

Shabana FC will be aiming to build on their experience as they embark on their third consecutive season in the Football Kenya Federation Premier League. 

Their 2025/26 campaign kicks off on September 21 with a home fixture against newly promoted APS Bomet at the Gusii Stadium.

APS Bomet will be making their top-flight debut after earning promotion by finishing second in the National Super League, the country’s second-tier competition.

Meanwhile, Shabana, who concluded last season in fifth place, will be eager to make a bold statement from the outset and reignite their pursuit of league glory.

Following the opening clash, Peter Okidi’s charges will head to Mombasa to take on Bandari FC in their second match.

Having secured four points from Bandari last season, thanks to a win and a draw, Shabana will aim to extend their dominance over the coastal side.

Their third fixture, scheduled for Sunday, October 5, pits them against 12-time champions Tusker FC.

Last season, Shabana also took four points from the Brewers, and this time, they’ll be aiming for a clean sweep.

A week later, they return to Gusii Stadium to host Posta Rangers a side that posed significant challenges last season.

They only managed a single point in a 1-1 draw, having lost the reverse fixture. This time, they’ll be targeting maximum points.

Matchweek five will see Shabana face Mathare United, a team that staged a dramatic turnaround last season to avoid relegation.

The Tore Bobe only managed one point from John Kamau’s squad last season and will be eyeing all six points this time around.

Last season, Shabana began their campaign on a disappointing note, securing only three points from their first six matches (3 draws, 3 losses). Turning that poor start around will be a major objective this season.

After facing Tusker in matchweek three, a team also in last season’s title race, Shabana will host AFC Leopards on October 26 in what promises to be one of the most electrifying fixtures of the first half of the season.

Both clubs boast massive fanbases, and their last encounters were tightly contested.

Shabana edged out Ingwe 2-1 at Gusii Stadium, while the reverse fixture ended in a 1-1 draw at Kenyatta Stadium.

AFC Leopards will certainly be gunning for revenge, setting the stage for a thrilling showdown.

Another blockbuster clash waits on November 29, when Shabana FC travels to face the defending champions Kenya Police FC.

Last season, both sides split the points equally, each winning their home game. This time, both will be looking to assert supremacy, with Shabana hoping to snatch all six points.

On December 13, Shabana will visit Kakamega Homeboyz, a fixture that carries added tension after Homeboyz controversially knocked them out of last season’s FKF Cup.

Vengeance will be on the visitors’ minds as they look to spoil the party.

They will wrap up the calendar year with an away fixture against KCB FC on December 22.
