Gor Mahia continue to lead the Kenya Premier League standings after the latest round of matches, with 3K FC climbing to second place following a 2-1 victory over Murang’a Seal.

The results have added fresh competition to the early stages of the campaign, although Gor Mahia remain firmly at the top after winning their opening three matches.

The record Kenyan champions have collected nine points from three games, scoring six goals and conceding two. Their perfect start has given them an early advantage as they pursue another league title.

3K FC moved into second position with five points after securing their first victory of the season against Murang’a Seal. The club had drawn its first two matches before finally collecting maximum points, providing a boost to its campaign.

Mara Sugar occupy third place with five points from three matches. They have recorded one win and two draws, maintaining an unbeaten start but sitting four points behind Gor Mahia.

AFC Leopards are fourth with four points from two matches. Kakamega Homeboyz and Shabana have also collected four points, with the three sides recording one victory and one draw each, despite having played different numbers of games.

Elsewhere, Nairobi United and APS Bomet shared the points after playing out a 1-1 draw. Nairobi United have three points from three matches, having drawn all their opening fixtures. APS Bomet have two points following two draws and one defeat.

Murang’a Seal will now be seeking a response after their narrow defeat to 3K FC as they prepare for their upcoming fixtures.

At the bottom of the standings, Mombasa United sit in 18th place without a point after losing their first two matches.

With several teams having played fewer games than others, the table could change significantly in the coming weeks. However, Gor Mahia’s three consecutive victories have given them an encouraging start, while their challengers will be eager to close the gap in the next round of matches.
