- 25/05/2025 – Kayole Starlets 3-0 Soccer Assassins FC (FKFWNSL Playoffs)
The two sides have met twice in recent competitions with both teams sharing one victory each. The most recent meeting came during the first round of the ongoing FKF Women Premier League season at Dandora Stadium where Soccer Assassins edged past Kayole in a closely contested encounter. Magneta Ocharo scored Kayole’s only goal on the day.
Prior to that, Kayole enjoyed a dominant 3-0 victory over the Vihiga-based side during the FKF Women National Super League playoffs at Afraha Stadium in Nakuru. Sarah Chalovu netted a brilliant brace while Shalin Otieno also found the back of the net in a memorable performance that secured promotion momentum for the team.
What’s at Stake
Kayole Starlets head into the fixture focused on improving their attacking efficiency and converting the chances created in recent matches as they seek to leave Mbihi Grounds with maximum points. A victory on Sunday could see the Kayole rise to 22 points and potentially climb further away from the relegation zone while keeping alive the ambition of finishing strongly in the top six positions.
With only a handful of matches remaining before the season concludes, every point now carries significant importance and the technical bench will be keen on seeing the team maintain concentration throughout the ninety minutes.
Our Opponents
Soccer Assassins FC approach the match equally motivated as they continue their fight for survival in the league. The hosts currently sit five points behind Kayole on the standings and understand that a positive result on home soil would greatly improve their chances of avoiding relegation. They will also come into the game boosted by morale after securing a dramatic victory over Zetech Sparks in their previous outing courtesy of a late stoppage-time winner.
