Gor Mahia fans gather outside Kenya National Archives in Nairobi's CBD on Sunday, May 31, 2026, ahead of the club's FKF Premier League 2025/26 trophy coronation.
The last meeting between Gor and Al Hilal came in July 2024 in the Cecafa Club Cup, and the Sudanese giants won 2-0.
Gor Mahia finished top of Group ‘A’ in this year’s tournament on six points and qualified to play Al Hilal in the semi-finals.
Gor Mahia’s quest to win the first Confederation of East and Central Africa Football Associations (Cecafa) title in more than four decades faces the toughest test on Tuesday afternoon when they play Sudanese giants Al Hilal in the first semi-final in Kigali.
The potentially-explosive match that will be played at Kigali Pele Stadium will start at 4pm (Kenyan time), and will be followed by the second semi-final fixture at the same venue pitting South Sudan’s Jamus Sports Club and Rwandese Rayon Sports Football Club from 8pm.
