Two underwhelming sides so far in the Premier League Wakiso Giants and URA face off at the Kabaka Kyabaggu stadium, Wakiso with either targeting redemption.

The hosts, under the stewardship of Steven Bengo are winless in six matches are were beaten 6-1 in their last outing by champions SC Villa.

In that unwanted run, the Purple Sharks have kept just two clean sheets and scored just once, from the penalty spot.

With 9 points from as many matches, they are just two points off the bottom three and failure to pick maximum points at home against equally desperate tax collectors could leave them in the relegation zone by end of match day ten.

URA on 11 points has put Alex Isabirye under enormous pressure with only one victory in the last five games.

“We need to start winning matches and we hope the bad run ends at Wakiso Giants,” said Isabirye.

Ex-Wakiso Giants winger Moses Aliro has been one of the few bright sparks in the URA team and against former bosses, he will be amongst the players to watch.

Shariph Kimbowa, also a former Shark is doubtful but Joshua Lubwama is available to stamp authority at the heart of defence like it has been all season so far.
