Tusker will be seeking to get their seventh win of the season when they host an inconsistent Kenya Police on Wednesday afternoon.
Kenya Police FC will be out to stop Tusker FC when both sides face each other at the Kenyatta Stadium, Machakos in what will be the last FKFPL game of 2023.
Tusker have enjoyed a good run of form after a poor start to the season, going unbeaten in each of their last five fixtures and registering two wins on the bounce against Bidco United and Nzoia Sugar last week.
The Law Enforcers have not tasted victory since overcoming Murang’a Seal 2-0 at the start of December, which has put their title challenge to an abrupt halt, right after they looked like they had bounced back under Zdravko Logarusic.

FKFPL Cheche highlights what Kenyan football can borrow from rugby and Tanzania to attract more fans
David ‘Cheche’ Ochieng’ has stressed on the importance of “hyping up the game” in order to attract local fans to come and help grow Kenyan football.
Police have amassed 21 points this season, winning five, drawing six and losing the other four of their fixtures, and sit ninth on the table.
Tusker on the other hand, sit seventh on 22 points, nine behind leaders Gor Mahia, who themselves will be playing Bandari on Friday.
The South C-based side boasts having several international players, but have struggled to replicate their form from last season.

Losing both Duke Abuya and Elvis Rupia to Tanzanian side Sindiga Big Stars has affected their play moving forward, with creative replacement Tyson Otieno yet to settle, while striker Clinton Kinanga, who has scored four goals so far this season, has never really managed to make the number nine position his own.
Tusker by contrast appears finally settled after a period where head coach Robert Matano was chopping and changing the side, although injuries to key players have been hindering his decisions.
He has picked a settled lineup over the last three games against Posta, Nzoia, and Bidco, and that is likely to follow as he seeks to get his side to jump to sixth place and just six points behind the leaders.

Muhoroni ended their five-game losing streak with a win over Posta Rangers last weekend. They sit 17th on 12 points with Sofapaka sitting 16th on 14 points.
A win for either side could go a long way in their battle against the axe from the league.
