The Queens of Soccer are set for another test on the road as they travel to Jinja to face She Corporate FC in the Finance Trust Bank FUFA Women Super League.
This fixture brings together two sides that have steadily built a competitive rivalry over recent seasons. It will be the 8th meeting between Kampala Queens FC and She Corporate FC, with the Queens historically holding the edge—four wins and two draws from the previous seven encounters. However, this season introduced a shift in that narrative. In the first-round meeting at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo, She Corporate walked away with a narrow but hard-fought 3-2 victory, registering their first-ever win in this fixture.
That result alone adds weight to this return leg. It is not just another league match.
Kampala Queens FC head into the contest with a strong away record that continues to define their campaign. In eight matches played away from home this season, the Queens have secured four victories and picked up three draws, suffering just a single defeat. The only blemish remains the 2-0 loss to She Maroons FC, a result the team has since used as a reference point for growth.
Assistant Coach Shafic Mutebi believes the team is mentally aligned and ready to build on that away form:
Our performance has been strong away from home, and our focus is on correcting mistakes we made in the previous home game. The goal is clear – to secure three points.
Even with the title race presenting its own challenges at this stage of the season, the internal standards within the squad remain uncompromised:
The title might seem out of reach at the moment but our mindset remains the same – to win!
On the pitch, this encounter is layered with individual and collective battles that could define its outcome. One of the standout duels will be in attack, where the Queens’ leading scorer Catherine Nagadya comes up against the league’s current top scorer, Jesca Namanda. Both forwards have been instrumental for their respective teams this season, and their sharpness in front of goal could ultimately tilt the balance.
There is also a compelling subplot built around familiarity. She Corporate FC currently hosts two former Queens—Sumayah Komuntale and Lukiya Namubiru—players who understand the DNA, movement, and mentality within the Kampala Queens setup. Their presence introduces an added tactical layer, as they face former teammates they know closely, both on and off the ball.
From the technical areas, the game presents a clash of philosophies shaped by international influence. Kampala Queens FC are led by Ethiopian head coach Asefa Firew Hailegebreal, whose structured and detail-oriented approach has been central to the team’s identity. Across from him stands a Burundian tactician guiding She Corporate FC, setting up an intriguing strategic battle that could be decided by in-game tactical adjustments and execution.
Surface conditions may also play a key role. The match will be played on artificial turf—an environment that closely mirrors the Queens’ home conditions. For forward Joanitah Ainembabazi, this familiarity is an advantage the team intends to maximize:
We will be playing on an artificial turf, a familiar surface. This will help us in execution as we seek maximum points.
In terms of squad fitness, Kampala Queens FC head into the fixture with a positive update from the medical department. No injuries have been registered during the week, allowing the technical team a full range of options. Wujja, who was sidelined at the start of the week due to malaria, has successfully recovered and returned to training, taking part in the team’s final preparatory session.
