Posta Ranger’s battle to avoid relegation from the Kenya Premier League takes center stage on Sunday afternoon when they host Coastal based Bandari at the Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos from 2 pm. Rangers are currently 15th on the log with 25 points, just one better that Vihiga United who are in the relegation zone.
Ranger’s form has not been great as illustrated by their position on the log and has only won 2 of their last 13 matches. They did put up a fight in their last match against high flying Sofapaka but still lost 3-2. With a goal difference of -7, they need to start tightening at the back failure to which they will be back to the National Super League faster than they would have hoped for.
Bandari are by no means pushovers, 3rd on the log with 48 points and will come to this fixture on the back of a morale-boosting 1-0 win over Ulinzi Stars. Posta Rangers might, however, look at Bandari’s away form for encouragement, they have lost 3 of their last 6 away fixtures which should be a concern for them.
Posta Ranger’s home form will be key in their bid to maintain top flight status next season, Sunday feels like the right time for them to start picking points. We will have all the details from the match as the action happens, stay with us.
