Ulinzi Stars will be desperate for their first win of the season when they travel away to a Posta Rangers side that has had a mixed start to the season.
Ulinzi Stars will head to Machakos Stadium on Sunday afternoon looking to secure their first win of the season against Posta Rangers in the Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKF PL).

Shabana denied first victory as resilient Kariobangi Sharks stand strong in stalemate
Kariobangi Sharks shared the spoils at the Dandora stadium when they were held to a stalemate by Shaban.
Two of those goals came in their 2-2 draw with Shabana in September and a recent 1-1 draw in Wednesday's midweek action against Tusker FC, where substitute Brian Kafero equalized to earn the Defense Forces a point at the Police Sacco Stadium.
Ulinzi's three draws and two losses reflect a side struggling to find momentum, and they will be looking for a shift in fortunes on Sunday.
Standing in their way is Posta Rangers, a team that also has mixed results this season.
The Mailers sit just above Ulinzi in 15th place with five points, tallying one win, two draws, and two losses.
The Bernard Kawinzi-coached side faced a similar challenge in their midweek fixture, where they scored early against Mara Sugar at the Awendo Stadium but conceded in the 83rd minute to settle for a 1-1 draw.
The Mailers have equally scored just three goals while conceding a staggering eight, signaling issues at both ends of the pitch.
Both sides are desperate to turn their seasons around with a win.
