Wakiso Giants will be taking on Arua Hill in the final game of the first round as they aim to build on the last away victory at Soltilo Bright Stars.

The Purple Sharks will also be desperate to win after a disappointing a 3-2 home defeat against Busoga United in their last home game – one that ended their unbeaten home stretch this season.

There will be renewal of acquaintances as Coach Livingstone Mbabazi, goalkeeper Richard Anyama, defender Geriga Atendele and midfielders Gadafi Wahab and Faizul Ibrahim return with the Kongolo.

Right back Grant Matsiko sits out after accumulating three bookings and that could pave way for Colline Onega to make his debut.

Moses Aliro featured for Lango Province on Sunday and it remains to be seen whether the tactician will consider him for the game given the few hours of recovery.

Meanwhile, Arua Hill had a fine start to the season but have since blown hot and cold in the last few games.

The Kongolo beat Bright Stars 2-1 in their last game and will be have extra motivation to prove a point.

There have been two previous league meetings and all won by Arua Hill.
