Azam Uganda Premier League: Tuesday May 10, 2016
Express Vs SC Villa Jogoo – Mutesa II stadium, Wankulukuku
4 pm Live on Azam TV and 102.1 FUFA f.m
Express and Sports Club Villa Jogoo football clubs still have a slim mathematical chance of winning this year’s league title.
As the two giants square off at Mutesa II stadium, Wankulukuku stadium this Tuesday, there is a lot at stake to fight for.
SC Villa won the corresponding fixture in the first round at Nakivubo, coming from two goals down to win the tie 3-2.
Express has 48 points and still has to play league leaders, KCCA.
Victories in these games plus the remaining games with a slip up for the second placed Vipers could swing the title in their favour.
Key actors:
Express looks forward a solid midfield of Sam Kintu, Vincent Kayizzi and Simon Sserunkuma with the proven and tested striker Tonny Odur having the mantle to look for goals.
On the other hand, SC Villa’s goalie Nicholas Ssebwatto, skipper Jonathan ‘Dante’ Mugabi, midfielders Tadeo Lwanga (facing his former club) and Mike Sserumaga as well as winger cum striker Mike Ndera are key pillars for team SC Villa.
