    How to Follow Kenya's SportPesa League on Azam TV

    The Kenyan Premier League, officially the SportPesa League and also known as the FKF Premier League, is Kenya's top division: 18 clubs run by the Football Kenya Federation. Gor Mahia are the record champions and won again in 2025/26, and their Mashemeji derby with AFC Leopards remains the biggest date on the Nairobi football calendar. Tusker and Kenya Police have also lifted the title in recent seasons, and the champions go on to the CAF Champions League.

    Live rights belong to Azam TV, the pay-TV platform that covers the league across East Africa: Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. Matches air on Azam TV's channels through its decoder packages, and AzamTV MAX streams them for viewers who would rather use a phone, tablet or smart TV.

    Nobody shows the league free-to-air this season, and our listings stop at East Africa's borders. Kenyans abroad who subscribe to AzamTV MAX at home can connect a VPN to a Kenyan server so it keeps playing in Dubai or London.

    Kick-offs follow East Africa Time (UTC+3), so a 3pm game in Nairobi starts at noon in London in winter, or 1pm during British summer time.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Which channel shows the Kenyan Premier League?

    Azam TV holds the live rights for 2026/27, with matches on its pay-TV channels and streams on AzamTV MAX. The deal covers Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi, so the same coverage serves the wider East African audience that follows Kenyan clubs.

    Is the SportPesa League on free TV?

    Not this season. The live coverage is on Azam TV, a subscription service, and online on AzamTV MAX. Free pirate links shared on social media during big games are frequently cut off and full of pop-ups, so a subscription is the dependable route.

    Can I stream Kenyan Premier League matches on my phone?

    Yes. AzamTV MAX streams Azam TV's live matches to phones and tablets as well as smart TVs. Sign in with your Azam account before kick-off; Wi-Fi gives the most reliable picture over a whole match, and it spares your mobile bundle.

    How can I watch Gor Mahia vs AFC Leopards?

    Azam TV's live rights cover the Mashemeji derby just as they cover every other league fixture, which puts it on Azam TV and AzamTV MAX. Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards are the two most widely supported clubs in Kenya, which is why the fixture carries such weight.

    Can I watch the Kenyan Premier League outside East Africa?

    Azam TV's deal covers only Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi, and nothing else is listed. If you already pay for AzamTV MAX and travel or live abroad, a VPN set to Kenya makes the app treat you as a viewer at home, so your usual streams keep working.

    What time do Kenyan Premier League games start?

    Matches follow East Africa Time (UTC+3), which Kenya keeps all year. That is one hour ahead of Johannesburg, two ahead of Lagos and three ahead of Accra, and two or three hours ahead of London depending on whether Britain is on summer time.

    When does the 2026/27 Kenyan Premier League season run?

    Kenya's season usually starts in late summer and ends around June, with 18 clubs playing 34 rounds home and away. The title winners move on to the CAF Champions League, and the bottom clubs drop to the National Super League.

    Why is it called the SportPesa League?

    SportPesa, the betting company, is the league's title sponsor, so the competition is officially branded the SportPesa League. You will also see it called the FKF Premier League or simply the KPL, and all three names mean the same 18-club top flight.
