The 2026 FKF Cup has officially entered its most unpredictable phase following the Round of 32 draw conducted on Thursday February 19, at the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani.
The ceremony overseen by Football Kenya Federation officials, has set the stage for a series of high-stakes encounters scheduled for the weekend of March 7 and 8.
After a preliminary round defined by shocking exits and underdog heroics, the remaining 32 teams now have a clear map toward the coveted ticket to the 2026/27 CAF Confederation Cup.

The headline story of the draw remains the incredible journey of regional side BB Bread FC.
After pulling off the upset of the decade by eliminating 11-time winners AFC Leopards in a post match penalty shootout, the giant killers have been rewarded with an even bigger clash against record champions Gor Mahia.
This fixture is already being billed as the ultimate test for the amateur side, as they attempt to dismantle yet another top-flight powerhouse in their quest for a historic deep run in Kenya’s premier knockout competition.
The most prominent clash however, is the all-top-tier showdown between Bidco United and Tusker FC, a match that guarantees the exit of at least one Sportpesa League club before the Round of 16.
Similarly, Shabana will face off against Muhoroni Youth in a match expected to draw massive crowds, while Bandari prepares to welcome Kwale based club Bumbani Stars in a Coastal Derby.
Non league club Kuta Collections that eliminated Al Azizia in the Round of 64 will battle it out against KSG Ogopa FC for a chance to cause another upset.
Defending champions Nairobi United are set to begin their title defense against Kilifi-based outfit L15 FC in a rescheduled Round of 64 fixture.
The match, which was originally slated for February 7, was pushed forward to accommodate Nairobi United’s commitments in the CAF Confederation Cup.
The winner of the Nairobi United vs L15 FC clash will progress to face BMC Allstars in the next round.
BMC Allstars secured their spot in the Round of 32 after a narrow 1-0 victory over RAVSA at the Vapor Grounds, and they will now wait to see if they will be hosting the reigning champions or a coastal underdog on March 7 or 8.
