MINNOW teams have come face to face with the relegation monster. The weekend therefore, offers them chance to salvage themselves or sink further in the Nile special super League.
Namboole stadium
Police faces an uphill task against Express in a match both sides badly need to get maximum points.
Police is still hovering around the relegation zone and a loss today would be disastrous.
Coach Jimmy Muguwa said they badly need the three points to ease tension. Several of his regular starters are out with injury and this further complicates the jigsaw.
Express coach Godfrey Nyola said his side had rediscovered its winning formula after torrential poor show this season. The Wankulukuku club also wants the win to consolidate its third position on the table.
Kabale Stadium
Horizon will look to their gods for a second season win as they face Mbale Heroes. A Mbale businessman Joseph Aryowa yesterday boosted the team with 300 litres of fuel to make the western trip.
Akii Bua stadium
George Ssemogerere will have his fingers crossed as Military Police plays against homeboys Black Rhino.
Ssemogerere was assigned to help the team escape relegation and any loss of points spells doom.
