Nairobi City Stars defensive midfielder Clifford Ouma is optimistic that the team will return to winning ways this weekend when they face Bandari at the Mbaraki Stadium in Mombasa.City Stars were on a seven-game winning streak until the last three weeks when they failed to pick up maximum points against the AFC Leopards and Shabana.Their good run of positive results was brought to a halt by the Leopards, who beat them 2-0 at Bukhungu Stadium before playing league returnee Shabana to a barren draw last weekend.##NAJAVA_MECA_7855893##In both matches, City Stars had a man sent off, with skipper Calvins Masawa seeing red in the defeat to the Leopards, his first in the top tier, while Newton Ochieng went for an early shower in the tie against Shabana.Before the unwanted results against the Leopards and Shabana, City Stars had been drawn into the title talks as they were trailing league leaders Gor Mahia by seven points.Japanese Yuto Kusaba delighted after making FKFPL debut last weekendThe trip down to the coast and getting maximum points against Bandari in their backyard is difficult on paper, but Ouma is confident that the team will deliver.”We want to get back to winning ways this weekend after reaping unwanted results in the last two matches.
