University of Eldoret (UoE) head coach Josphat Pilishi is optimistic that they will beat former Kenya Women Premier league (KWPL) side Eldoret Falcons to progress in the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Cup kicks off on Saturday across the country in the round of 32.

Despite losing his first team players to the opponents, Pilishi is bullish that he will use all his strength to win the Eldoret derby as the host.

“Falcons (Eldoret) signed my first team players but I have signed many to replace them to beef up the squad. Come Saturday, we have to try our best to shine at home against our opponents,” said Pilishi.

The teams will be playing bragging rights in the Eldoret derby where all head coaches say that they cannot underestimate any team since the players know each other very well and cross-cross and mingle on a daily basis.
