Overview:
The two teams have previously met three times in the league with BUL winning once and the rest ending in stalemates
Following a false start to the second round, BUL and Gaddafi lock horns in the Jinja derby with eyes set on picking their first three points.
The hosts suffered a 1-0 loss to SC Villa in the last outing which made it back to back defeats and two draws in four second round fixtures.
On the other hand, Gaddafi drew goalless with giants Express, lost to Onduparaka and also drew 1-1 with SC Villa in the three games played.
“We haven’t done well so far in the second round and we need to start winning games starting with the derby against Gaddafi,” interim BUL Coach Simeon Masaba told the media. “I call upon all fans to come give us support,” he added.
His opposite number Wasswa Bbosa also echoed same sentiments as he targets three points.
“Its high time we started getting wins again,” said Bbosa before he revealed the side will miss the services of many of his players through injury.
“Saddiq Ssekyembe, Steven Munguchi, Ibrahim Kiyemba and Mahad Yaya are all out but the available players will do the job,” he added.
In the previous three meetings, BUL has won once and the rest ending in stalemates including the reverse fixture in Kakindu.
BUL are third on the table with 29 points while Gaddafi lie 10th with 23 points.
