IT will be a clash of the titans as MTN Heathens face off with G4S Pirates at Kampala rugby ground today in the Super 8 Bell Lager League.

Pirates' tactician Brian Makalama has no room for excuse and has instructed his boys to go for a win.

"We have to blame ourselves for last weekend's loss against Kobs but this time we corrected our mistakes and the boys are focused to get maximum points from Heathens," said Makalama.

However Heathens tactician Ben Ferreira believes his boys must win this game if they are to keep pace with table leaders Kobs.

"A bonus point is an added advantage but we are for a win to keep an eye on the title," Ferriera said.

League champions Uganda telecom Kobs face a tough test against Entebbe Mongers who have won their last two games.

"It will be mouth-watering match and we are out to end Kobs' winning steak,"Onsandu said.

Mongers thrashed Nile 66-0 last week to claim the third spot on the table from Pirates who are now fourth on the Super eight league table.
