The fight to avoid relegation takes centre stage this weekend. MMUST hosts Kisumu RFC at Kakamega, with MMUST sitting last in the standings with four points while Kisumu holds six points which places them above MMUST. Daystar Falcons, who occupy ninth position with seven points, will compete against Nakuru RFC, who hold tenth position with six points, in a match which could potentially shift the standings in the lower table.
Strathmore Leos who currently hold fifth place in the playoff area will host Impala at Impala Grounds to secure their playoff position, while Impala wants to ascend from their current eighth place position.
The KRU Championship includes matches which cover all of its scheduled competition. NYS Spades host USIU Martials, while Mombasa RFC travel to face bottom-placed Western Bulls. Mean Machine will travel to Kisii to face Kisii RFC, while table leaders Mwamba RFC will host Homeboyz at Goan Institute.
