Express FC interim coach James Odoch is still in hunt for his maiden victory as Express FC interim coach as the Red Eagles makes the trip to Jinja to face Gaddafi FC on match day 20 of the StarTimes Uganda Premier League.

The Red Eagles won the first leg at the Muteesa II stadium Wankulukuku with an Erick Kambale header in December and will be hoping to complete a double over the soldier boys.

However, the Wankulukuku based side are yet to register victory since Odoch took over from Wasswa Bbosa who was sacked by the club.

“We’ve been working on a few corrections that we feel needed to be worked on from our 2-2 draw against KCCA FC, we respect Gaddafi FC but we’ve played them before and know what to expect so we feel we’ve prepared well and are ready to earn maximum points,” Odoch said.

This will be the second meeting between both sides across all competitions. The Red Eagles are looking for their first league win in three games.

Meanwhile eighth placed Gaddafi FC have managed one win and a draw in their last five league outings.
