Wednesday’s Women Premier League (WPL) action between holders Thika Queens and runners up Gaspo will be a repeat of the league playoff final with the latter looking to exert revenge. Under the tutelage of Domitila Wangui, Gaspo head to the Kiambu derby armed to the teeth and spoiling for a fight in the search for a third straight win in as many matches in the 2021/22 season. ##EDITORS_CHOICE##Gapso got their campaign off to a massive start with a 6-0 thrashing of Kisumu All Starlets on their own turf. In the second round of matches, up against Kayole Starlets at Stima Club, the Ruiru-based side left nothing to chance as they annihilated the Joshua Sakwa coached side 5-0 to maintain their second clean sheet. Coach Wangui says preparations are in top gear and all they need is self belief. “I know there is history there, having lost to Thika in the 2020/21 regular season and playoffs to miss out on the title but I believe the players will hold their own and fight for maximum points. We are in a good place tactically and they just need confidence going into the match and good execution,” said the tactician. Meanwhile, Thika Queens, coming off their first defeat to newbies Bunyore Starlets away in Bungoma will be looking to redeem themselves and move up tye rankings.
