By Daniel SaireKCC v Arua-GarageCAF Cup campaigners KCC plan to turn their anger against lowly Arua-Garage today at Nakivubo.The Lugogo side lost 1-0 to Ethiopia’s St George in Addis Ababa last weekend.Coach David Otti is expected to use KCC’s two local matches against Arua and Heroes to sharpen the team ahead of the return leg against the Ethiopians next Saturday.“The matches will give us a chance of training though we can not rely on them much because they are just local games that should not be compared to opposition from the Ethiopians,” said Otti.Arua has had a nightmarish appearance at Nakivubo stadium. They have conceded nine goals against one in two matches against Maji and Simba. More action awaits KCC when they travel to Mbale to meet Heroes on Sunday. Express will be at home to Maji tomorrow while Villa hosts Iganga at Namboole on Sunday.The Red Eagles yesterday augmented their defence with the acquisition of former Masaka defender Olepus Olembe at a fee of sh0.8m.r SC VILLA will play their Champions league return match against Sudan’s El-Merreikh on Friday at Mandela Stadium Namboole.ends
