Harambee Starlets will be keen to secure another big win as they face South Sudan in CECAFA on Thursday and here is all you need to know about the match.
Harambee Starlets will be out to add CECAFA whipping girls South Sudan to their list of casualties when the two sides clash on Thursday afternoon.
Kenya have been in scintillating form at the regional tournament being held in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania after beating Burundi 3-0 and Uganda 4-0 and will want to pile on more miserly on South Sudan, who have so far shipped in nine goals without reply, after losses to Tanzania (4-0) and Uganda (5-0).
With their form, Starlets are the overwhelming favourites to walk away with another big win as they bid to get closer to the final of the round robin tournament being staged in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Why Harambee Starlets’ Fine Run in CECAFA Championships Will Not Improve FIFA Standings
Despite Harambee Starlets' impressive performances at the 2025 CECAFA Women’s Championship, their FIFA world ranking will most likely remain unchanged.
Recent Head-to-Head Record
Harambee Starlets last meeting with South Sudan yielded an aggregate score of 15-0 in favour of Kenya, who won 8-0 in the first leg before securing a 7-1 victory in the return match in a Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
What Have They Said?
After the two big wins, Kenya will likely ring the changes and assistant coach Godfrey Oduor hinted to this after their victory against Uganda on Tuesday.
“We have 19 players in camp, and it is only fair to give everyone a chance. Some of the girls lack experience at this level, so it is important they get the exposure,” Oduor told the media.
