Shaban will hope to shake of their start to the season woes when they take on Police as they eye their first win of the season that has continued to elude them so far.

Shabana FC will welcome Police FC to the Gusii Stadium on Sunday for an FKF Premier League (FKF PL) clash.

The struggling hosts will attempt to secure their first win of the season that has continued to elude them so far.

The Tore Bobe has had a challenging start, sitting at the bottom of the table with just three points from six games, having drawn three and lost three.

In their last match at the Gusii Stadium on November 3, Shabana suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to City Stars, conceding a fifth-minute goal.

However, Shabana’s assistant coach Peter Okidi remains optimistic, stating, “Sunday we’re going to put a great performance against Police FC to try to win the game. Losing is always an opportunity to bounce back and show how much we want to win, and that is what we are fighting for.”

In contrast, Police FC has had a much stronger start to the season, remaining unbeaten in their four matches.

Yet, while they’ve avoided losses, they’ve only clinched one win and drawn three, leaving them in 13th place with six points.

Coach Anthony Kimani’s squad showed resilience in their recent outing against Sofapaka, where, despite going down to ten men, they secured a hard fought 1-1 draw.

Both teams have clear objectives heading into Sunday’s fixture with Shabana fighting to claim its elusive first victory, while Police FC aims to convert their solid start into more wins.
