KCCA will look to ascend to the top of the premier league standings when they take on struggling Calvary at the MTN Omndi stadium, Lugogo on Friday night.

The Kasasiro boys are favorites to take all three points, but coach Jackson Magera has warned against taking Calvary lightly.

 

We respect them like any other team in the league,” Magera said, emphasizing the importance of playing well and winning.

KCCA will be without Peter Magambo and Sharif Ssengendo, but they will still field a strong team.

A Chance to Go Top

A win for KCCA would take them to the summit of the league table, provided Buhimba Saints fail to beat SC Villa in the day’s early kickoff.

KCCA currently lie third with 8 points in four matches, while Calvary are second last with just one point.

Calvary’s Struggles Continue

Disadvantaged by the fixture having four straight away schedules, Calvary have yet to win a premier league match, losing two and drawing one.

They will be on the road for a fourth successive game, and it won’t be easy for them to stop KCCA’s momentum.

Upcoming Matches

The Uganda Premier League action continues on Saturday, November 1, with two matches scheduled:

– Entebbe UPPC vs Vipers at Bugonga Fisheries Ground (4pm)

– Mbarara City vs NEC at Rwamwanje stadium, Kamwenge (4pm)
