- MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo 7pm
Following a huge 2-0 over their biggest rivals SC Villa, KCCA host UPDF under the floodlights at Lugogo with Abdallah Mubiru warning against complacency.
The Kasasiro are unbeaten in seven league matches drawing just once and are now seven points behind leaders BUL with the Cityzens having a game in hand.
“This one of the hardest games to manage where players are coming from a big game but we are trying to prepare them mentally as we try to improve performance from their last game,” said Mubiru ahead of the game.
“They (UPDF) are fighting for everything, for survival so they will give it everything and we are also targeting a good finish and can’t be satisfied with the position we are in,” he added.
The hosts are without Ettiene Katenga, goalkeeper Emojong, Haruna Lukwago while Gui is back for selection after missing the game at Namboole on Wednesday.
UPDF come into the game an improved side with just a single defeat in the last five games winning two and drawing as many.
With 21 points, they are four points behind safety with four games left to end the season.
Elsewhere on the day, Mbarara City host URA while Maroons are away to Gaddafi with the two matches kicking off earlier at 4pm.
