Buddo last won this trophy in 2009 in Fort Portal when they beat Old Kampala. On their to Mbarara this year, Buddo lost to Kitende in the Wakiso regional final, but Coach Simon Mugerwa is happy with the team's performance.
"I'm looking forward to the match. Kigezi is not an easy opponent. They knocked out St Paul who was also good in this tournament," Mugerwa said moments after the draw was made. "Kabale teams always play good football. Kigezi has a lot of national experience, so you have to be cautious."
Mugerwa's team will be without injured strikers Sadam Masereka and Hakim Kiwamuka, but will rely on Frank Sebufu, Loki Simon Peter and Kajjabwangu Abu.
