THE SEASON SO FAR
Momentum is building — and Armada FC are back in business after that electric 6–0 victory at home to Flamengo FC last weekend. In what many fans are calling the most spirited of the season, goals from Pardale, Olaloko, Francis, and Tonui saw Armada flip the script in a second-half masterclass, delighting the travelling support and lifting team morale heading into the final stretch of the season. With confidence peaking and belief restored, this weekend's home clash against high-flying Arden Forest FC is shaping up to be an epic battle in front of the Armada faithful.

TEAM NEWS
Preparations have continued at pace following last week’s win, with the squad set to take part in a sharp midweek training session focused on final-third decision-making and tightening up defensive transitions. With several key names back in contention, spirits remain high, and the group is determined to deliver another strong display on home turf.

  • Squad Selection: Coach will finalise after warm-up
  • Available: Ibrahim, Khan, Naqash, Riaz
  • Unavailable: Ahmadi (Injured), Dunko (Absent), Jallow (Absent), Johnson (Absent)

TEAM STATS
Armada FC currently sit 7th in Division 4 with four crucial matches left to play. Every point counts — and the numbers show we’re trending upwards. Possession control dipped slightly by 8% in the last match, but Armada responded in the best possible way with a +4 improvement in goals scored. The attacking output surged with +8 more shots on goal, while the goal conversion ratio saw a boost of 8%. Signs are clear: this team is finding its bite at just the right time.

OPPOSITION FORM
Arden Forest FC arrive in formidable form — 13 wins, 1 draw, and just 1 defeat this season, with a staggering +61 goal difference. Sitting comfortably in 3rd place, they’ve proven to be ruthless in front of goal, spearheaded by a lethal quartet: Okome, Felix, McKenzie, Simons, and Smith. Expect sharp build-up play, aggressive transitions, and a clinical edge — but with the home crowd roaring and Armada’s tails up, the visitors might just find themselves in a storm they weren’t prepared for.

MANAGER’S THOUGHTS
We showed last week that we’re more than capable of turning the tide — and that belief is powerful. Arden Forest are a top side, but we’ve prepped well, the boys are buzzing, and I’ve got no doubt we’ll rise to the occasion. We’re ready for the challenge — bring it on!

CAPTAIN’S THOUGHTS
“We’re coming off a massive win and the lads are fired up. Training’s been sharp, our mentality is strong, and the team spirit is off the charts. We respect Arden Forest, but this is our ground, our fans — we’re ready for a battle, and we won’t back down.”
