The highly-anticipated Football Kenya Federation Premier League first leg match between giants Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards, scheduled for Saturday, has been postponed due to the unavailability of a venue.

The Mashemeji derby was postponed after Gor Mahia, who are the home team in the fixture, wrote to the Football Kenya Federation notifying them of their inability to secure a suitable venue for the match, Kenya’s biggest club football fixture and most at risk of encountering safety challenges.
