In the Saturday, 15 November clash held at the Kenya Institute of Building and Highway Technology (KIHBT) in Ngong, red-hot forward Syphas Otieno and Fred Ologi found the back of the net for the league leaders.

Powered by one of Kenya's leading gaming firms, Mozzart Bet, Migori are on a remarkable run, winning six of their opening eight matches, drawing once and losing only once.

Under the guidance of Sammy Otulo Owano, the border club have now won back-to-back games since their narrow 3-2 loss to Equity Bank FC earlier this month.

Their latest victory, coupled with dropped points by closest challengers Mombasa United, has opened a three-point gap at the summit of the standings.

While Migori are thriving, the opposite is true for Nairobi City Stars.

Simba wa Nairobi have now gone five matches without a win, losing four in that stretch.
