SC Villa host four-time league winners URA at Prisons Grounds, Luzira on Saturday aiming for a repeat of last season’s heroics.
The Jogoos ended a 20-year wait for an elusive 17th title last season with one key match versus URA headlining the triumph.
After going a goal down midway the second half, Villa bounced back winning the game late on with Kenneth Ssemakula scorcher still fresh on the lips of the football fraternity.
Enock Walusimbi admits games against Villa are always tough despite the champions going through some purple patch at the moment.
“Games against Villa are tough matches as they are a big side,” said Walusimbi. “They are not doing well at the moment but they have a good side and we expect no smooth ride,” he added.
The tax collectors are above SC Villa in 6th position with 21 points with Morley Byekwaso’s men in 10th position with 17 points.
