Tuesday October 1, 2024 fixtures
Soltilo Bright Stars vs KCCA – Kavumba 4pm
UPDF vs Wakiso Giants – Bombo 4pm
UPDF renew acquaintances with Wakiso Giants at Bombo on Tuesday looking to bounce back after defeat at NEC in their last outing.
Paul Kiwanuka’s side, on four points after three matches and lie 7th on the log, three points adrift of the Purple Sharks who are unbeaten so far.
The hosts who survived relegation on the last day of last season after beating the Purple Sharks want to avoid such drama by picking points early in the season especially at home and will fancy their chances against a side that are poor travelers.
However, with a 3-2 win over Maroons in their last trip, the Purple Sharks managed by Steven Bengo and Tonny Mawejje will fancy their chances especially after keeping their first clean sheet in the 1-0 win over Mbale Heroes.
Former Purple Shark Samson Kigozi will face his former immediate bosses for the first time and so will Derrick Kaija if picked by Bengo.
