THERE is one thing Express FC will need to do to frustrate an in-form Victor FC outfit today at the Muteesa II stadium Wankulukuku.

Score obviously, but essentially try to contain fleet-footed forward Yuda Mugalu, whose electric pace and eye for goal are sole reason Victor make their fourth league tie with the best tally of goals, six in just three games this season.

“Everybody knows what Mugalu can do especially when it requires changing the stride of a game,” Express head coach George Simogerere noted.

“He has pace and is often in the right place at the right time.”

Mugalu’s two season goals so far should however generate restricted alarm to the Red Eagles, who in Hassan Mubiru, have what it could take to mark a return to normal service after falling to their first season defeat against URA FC on Wednesday.

The Cranes forward, currently with three goals in the league, has shown more vigour in front of goal since returning from Rwandan side APR FC.

At Nakivubo stadium, Moses Basena confronts the enviable task of restoring Simba’s confidence against KCC, who are in good heart after claiming maximum points in their delicate trip to Mbale. Simba have not won a game since the start of the season.
URA hosts Masaka LC at Namboole while Super Cubs travel to Mbale.
