If UPDF FC can take maximum points from Wakiso Giants, they could go fifth on the table with 27 points, level with KCCA FC and surpass Police FC in the process. Wakiso Giants who are looking for their third win of the season after defeating Mbarara City and BUL could move a place up to 10th position, overtaking Bright Stars who currently occupy the position.
