For the second game in succession, KCCA will be without experienced defender Habib Kavuma in a Total 2017 CAF Confederation Cup.
The defender also missed the 3-1 win over FUS Rabat on Sunday at Lugogo for his red card against Rivers United in Port Harcourt is still serving a ban thanks to CAF disciplinary measure VII. 2 that states.
“If the same player accumulates, later in the same competition, two more cautions in two different matches until the end of the group matches, then the second sanction will be double and the player will be suspended for two subsequent matches.
This affects Kavuma who prior to the game against FUS Rabat had been suspended for the tie against Egypt’s Al Masry.
Clive Kyazze, the club’s Head of Communication confirmed the club has recieved a communication in regard to the defender’s absence.
Kavuma travelled with the team, replacing winger Vincent Kayizzi from the 18-man squad that played against FUS Rabat.
