Ulinzi Starlets eye win against Queens

Ulinzi Starlets head coach Collins Ochieng is confident they will beat Bungoma Queens when both lock horns in the FKF Women’s Premier League on Sunday, January 11 at Bungoma Polytechnic Stadium.

Ochieng has led the soldiers to top of the table with 20 points same to second placed Trinity Starlets as Kenya Police Bullets, Vihiga Queens and Kayole Starlets wrap up top five with 19, 18 and 16 points in that order.

Ahead of the mouth-watering clash, Ochieng has no injuries doubt and believe that proper preparations they have had will propel them to win the match.

“We thank God for guiding us all through the 2025 year to the New Year. We resumed the camp on December 29 to prepare for Bungoma match and so far, I can say we are ready to go. All my players are in good shape with no injury doubts so we look forward for a win.”

Ochieng however admitted that defeating their opponents will not be a walk in the park as he urged his charges to stay focused and work hard.

“Bungoma is a tough side because many of their players have experience of playing in the premier league and they play very good football but that will not scare us away from defeating them.”
