Express FC will be keen to keep momentum with league leaders URA FC when the pay a courtesy visit to tricky side Victors FC at Kakindu Stadium in Jinja. The Red eagles who lie second on the table with 44 points will however not find it easy against Sula Kato’s side that has beaten or drawn all the big sides at their Kakindu fortress. URA FC and Bunamwaya SC left the place with out a point while KCC FC and SC.Villa escaped with one.
The Jinja side is expected to field either of Buule Godwin or U-23 international Kimera Ali in goal with Lugolobi Robert, Ayub Kiiza, Katwere Isaac and Kalanzi manning the defence. Tanzanian import Abdalla Mohamad, Mulindwa Julius and Ssebuza Sula in midfield as Eric Ssebuguzi and Ivan Ntege search for goals. Victors FC has been impressive in the last few weeks bagging two wins in their last three games and holding champions URA FC to a one all draw in the process an implication they have not lost in their previous three outings.
Express FC has had a tough week with Coach Sam Ssimbwa threatening to quit for allegedly fans abuse. However, that put aside, the Red eagles will aim to returning to winning ways having failed to earn maximum points in their last two outings and winning just once in four games. In that process, they have twice drawn with URA FC and then Water FC and earning a narrow 1-0 win over Hoima-Busia.
Jamal Salim is expected in goal for the eagles with Bob Kasozi and Katongole Henry playing in centre back. Kazibwe Ismail is expected to be at left back pushing Lutimba Yayo to the left side of midfield. Julius Ogwang and on form Ssekisambu Erias will lead the hunt for goals. The reverse fixture ended 3-0 in favor of Express FC with Luzige Edgar bagging a brace while Ibrahim jingo added the other. The duo has since left the side. A win for Express may put them level on points with leaders URA FC if the tax collectors lose to Proline.
