Head to head: Ulinzi Stars (H) vs Nairobi City Stars A)

Nairobi City Stars

For the 12th time since 2006 – but the first since 2016 – Ulinzi Stars will host Nairobi City Stars in a premier league tie.

This time for the first time ever at the ASK Showground, Nakuru during a round 25 match on Saturday 10 July 2021 starting 1 pm.

From the previous 11 encounters from 2006 to 2016, Nairobi City Stars has managed one win, forced seven draws, and lost three games.

The lone win was back in October 2011 at Afraha Stadium where club legends Justus Basweti and Danny Sserunkuma scored to cancel out a first-minute Allan Muhati strike to complete at 2-1 comeback win.

From the eleven home games, host Ulinzi Stars has outscored City Stars 12 goals to eight.

The upcoming game is a reverse of the first leg tie this season that ended 1-1 at Utalii in mid-January where Oscar Wamalwa’s penalty in the second half canceled out a Peter Opiyo freekick in the first half.

There are constants in the upcoming game; coaches on either side will be facing off once again as Benjamin Nyangweso at Ulinzi will be coming up against Sanjin Alagic.

Form-wise, both sides are in search of elusive full spoils that escaped them in the last two games.

Ulinzi Stars carries two straight losses to the game as City Stars has a loss and draw.

Tablewise, City Stars sits seventh on the log with 33 points from 23 games while Ulinzi is five points back at tenth.
