The 2013 KPL Top 8 Cup was the third edition of the tournament, which was originally scheduled to run from 3 April to 2 June 2013,[1] but had the date of its final changed to 24 July.[2] It was contested by the top 8 teams of the 2012 Kenyan Premier League season: A.F.C. Leopards, Chemelil Sugar, Gor Mahia, Mathare United, Sofapaka, Thika United, Tusker and Ulinzi Stars.
Gor Mahia were the defending champions, having won their first title the previous season, but were eliminated by eventual champions Tusker in the semi-finals, who beat Thika United to clinch their first title.
