Wankuluku Stadium. Date: Tue 10/04/12 Kick Off: 3.30pm. Live on SS9E.
Hosts aim at extending lead at the top.
Hoima-Busia will get a test of T.V football today when they visit table leaders Express FC at Mutesa II, Wankulukuku stadium. Sam Ssimbwa’s side lead the table with 39 points from 20 games played while Peter Oguttu’s side are second from bottom with 16 points.
A win for Express FC will extend their lead at the top by a four points margin given that second placed URA FC
have no league game.
EXPRESS FC TEAM NEWS: Hashim Ssempala may return to the team after missing the URA FC encounter. Jamal Salim, Ssekisambu Erias, Bob Kasozi, Bony Baingana, Lutimba Yayo, Ogwang Julius and Katongole Henry are expected to maintain their starting roles in the team.
MAN TO WATCH: Ssekisambu Erias has scored two goals in three games. His movements on and off the ball, positioning and poaching ability means Hoima-Busia’s rear guard must keep a keen eye on him.
RECENT FORM: DDWWD
HOIMA-BUSIA TEAM NEWS: No injury worries ahead of the tie but fatigue due to playing many games a week are negatively hitting on Peter Ogutu’s side. Isiko Ayub, Mugabi Martin, Kawooya Micheal, Wafula Bodi, and Isa Barasa are expected in the squad to take on Express FC.
MAN TO WATCH: Isiko Ayub has been a joy to watch scoring some important goals for Busia. His midfield exploits, ability to beat defenders and a knack for goals makes him deadly.
RECENT FORM: DWLLL.

This is the first super league game live on T.V in the second round.

PREDICTION: Its difficult to stop Express FC at this time in the title hunt especially when you are Hoima-Busia. Despite Hoima-Busia getting a draw from the first leg in their own back yard, it will be a tall order to ask for a win from the visitors. EXPRESS FC 3-0 HOIMA-BUSIA. What is your prediction?
