Preview: KCCA Eye Busoga United revenge
KCCA is set to seek redemption against Busoga United as they clash under Lugogo floodlights.
In their last encounter, Busoga United inflicted a 2-1 defeat on KCCA, marking a challenging start for Abdallah Mubiru’s tenure.
Despite initially trailing, Busoga United orchestrated a remarkable comeback with goals from Ronald Kasamba and Emmanuel Ajo.
That match, delayed due to heavy rainfall, featured shortened halves of 40 minutes and dimming floodlights in the second half.
Since then, KCCA has displayed improved form, and have secured victories in their last two outings, notably defeating rivals Vipers.
Although not in contention for the title, KCCA aims to ascend the league standings. However, they are yet to score a home league goal in their past two games, a statistic they are eager to change.
Conversely, Busoga United has struggled on the road, failing to score in their last six league fixtures losing 12-0 on aggregate score.
Their poor form has solidified their position as relegation candidates, sitting just one point above the relegation zone.
With their survival hopes hanging by a thread, Busoga United must approach their remaining matches with a final-like mentality to avoid relegation from the top flight this season.
