CRANES professionals Hamis Kiiza and Musa Mudde will jet in on Thursday as the team prepares to enter residential at Sky Hotel on Sunday.

Mudde, who was earlier on feared suspended for the Cranes final 2012 Africa NAtions Cup qualifier for accumulated cards today confirmed that he would be first to arrive from Kenyan club Sofapaka while Kiiza will jet in from his Tanzanian club Yanga.

Geoffrey Sserunkuma and Dennis Onyango are expected to arrive before the team goes into camp. Team captain Ibrahim Sekagya, David Obua, Hassan Wasswa, Patrick Ochan, Tonny Mawejje and Nestroy Kizito will arrive on Monday, October 3.

Goalkeeper Abbey Dhaira and striker Brian Umony will join in the last batch of players to arrive on Tuesday, October 4.

Meanwhile the joint stake for the Cranes first goal against the Kenyans has risen to sh4m after Sports Betting Africa has announced their contribution of sh1m.

Earlier on Rwenzori Mineral Water staked sh3m for each goal scored and sh10m for a win.

Vice president Edward Sekandi is expected to preside over the match as the chief guest. However, the federation has warned politicians against using the match to drive their selfish campaigns.

A group of opposition politicians have been urging their supporters to turn up at Namboole in a special dress code.
