RECORD HOLDERS VILLA SEEK FIRST WIN AGAINST DEBUTANTS UPPC FC

RECORD HOLDERS VILLA SEEK FIRST WIN AGAINST DEBUTANTS UPPC FC.

Matchday 2 of the Uganda Premier League kicks off tomorrow with two exciting fixtures on the card.

Seventeen-time champions SC Villa (Jogoos) will be out to secure their first win of the season when they host newcomers Entebbe UPPC FC in a much-anticipated night fixture at their new home — Kadiba Stadium in Mengo.

The Jogoos will be eager to bounce back after losing their league opener 2-1 to archrivals KCCA FC at Namboole. Meanwhile, debutants Entebbe UPPC FC head into the clash on a high, having started their top-flight campaign with an impressive 2-1 victory over Lugazi FC in Entebbe.

Charles Lwanga and Ibrahim Kasinde will be key for SC Villa as they look to ignite the team’s attacking spark and claim their first three points of the campaign.

However, Entebbe UPPC FC have already shown they are not to be underestimated. The trio of Junior Samuel Kawawa, Hassan Ssenyonjo, and Issa Bugembe have the potential to cause problems for Villa’s defence and could spring another surprise result.

The debutants, come into this fixture with some confidence after getting their first ever top tier win (2-1) against Lugazi FC in their last game at home. This will be their third game of the season having lost their first to fellow new comers Buhimba United Saints FC.

All eyes will be on Mengo as 14th-placed SC Villa welcome 6th-placed Entebbe UPPC FC under the Kadiba Stadium floodlights.
