In the upcoming penultimate round of the season on Tuesday, Wakiso Giants brace themselves for a significant showdown against KCCA at Lugogo Stadium, aiming to secure their first-ever double over the formidable opponents. The Purple Sharks emerged victorious in the reverse fixture at Kabaka Kyabaggu, clinching a 2-1 win with stellar performances from Kenneth Kimera and Samson Kigozi, while Ashraf Mugume salvaged a late consolation goal for KCCA.
For KCCA, the recent setback against URA dashed their title aspirations, alleviating the pressure as they enter the game against Wakiso Giants. However, they remain determined to clinch a higher spot on the table, eyeing to displace NEC from the 5th position.
Meanwhile, Wakiso Giants solidified their stay in the division with a convincing 2-0 victory over Mbarara City. Yet, they remain eager to climb up the ranks and a potential three points from the upcoming match could propel them to the 9th position in the standings.
At Bombo, the stakes are high for hosts UPDF as they confront Maroons in a pivotal encounter. Positioned 15th on the table, UPDF must secure a victory to keep their survival hopes alive.
