Saddam Juma and Mutyaba return for KCCA against Al Ahly

CAF Champions League

Tuesday

KCCA v Al Ahly (Egypt)

The return of midfielders Saddam Juma and Muzamiru Mutyaba is a big boost for KCCA FC as they prepare to take on record winners Al Ahly (Egypt) today at Mandela National stadium, Namboole in the CAF Champions'League group stages.

The duo who return from injury, will beef up KCCA squad that struggled against Bostwana's Township Rollers in their opening game.

The local champions are drawn in Group A with record winners Al Ahly (Egypt), two time winners Espérance de Tunis (Tunisa) and Township Rollers of Bostwana. 

In March, KCCA eliminated Ethiopia's St George 1-0 on aggregate at StarTimes stadium, Lugogo to become the first Ugandan club to progress to the group stages of the CAF Champions League ever since they were introduced in 1997.

But before that, Ugandan teams such as Simba and SC Villa had reached the finals of African Cup of Champions now called CAF Champions League.
