Overview:

The two sides lost their first season games with the Purple Sharks thrashed 3-0 by Maroons while BUL narrowly lost to BUL 1-0 – both in their own backyards.

Wakiso Giants and Soltilo Bright Stars lock horns at Kabaka Kyabaggu in a fixture both teams cant afford to drop points.

The two sides lost their first season games with the Purple Sharks thrashed 3-0 by Maroons while BUL narrowly lost to BUL 1-0 – both in their own backyards.

The Saturday clash presents an opportunity for either to rediscover themselves.

The visitors will come into the game with a psychological edge following their 1-0 win over the hosts in the Fufa Super 8 fixture.

However, they must be wary of their indecent record away to the Purple Sharks where they have suffered two defeats and picked only two points out of a possible twelve.

They will look to Sam Ssenyonjo who turns guns against a side he played for in 2022 before switching sides.

Wakiso Giants could have Lawrence Bukenya back from injury but are without Titus Ssematimba who is away on trials on Europe.
