Mbarara City have won the lion’s share of games when both sides have met. They have won three of the six games while The Red Eagles have won twice and drawn once.

Mbarara City will be boosted by the timely arrival of South Sudanese striker Wol Makweth while Jude Ssemugabi also returns from malaria having missed the previous two games.

The duo is expected to partner Bashir Mutanda upfront who is also searching for his first ever Mbarara City goal.

Express on the other hand come into this fixture in high spirits having won 2-1 against Soltilo Bright Stars at Wankulukuku on Saturday.

One good turn deserves another, Coach Wasswa Bbosa believes his side will pick motivation from the club’s first ever win of the season attained from the last match.
