The tension already created between the two teams ahead of this game is just enough to tell the kind of action you expect at Villa Park in Nsambya this afternoon. The two teams are in the same group Rwenzori in the FUFA Big League and after today’s game, they will meet one more time in their battle for a place in the top flight.
Lweza are on top with 35 points while Baza Holdings lie second with 23 points. In their last outings in the big league, Baza were humbled by Mutundwe Lions 4-0 at Nakivubo stadium while Lweza threw away a 2-0 lead to share the spoils in a 2-2 draw with The Saints at Namboole stadium. Some soccer pundits believe that the nerves have started affecting both camps.
Saad Kibirango, Ddumba Sadala and Arthur Ssemazi will be the key players for Lweza while Johnson Akileng, Julius Isabirye, Moses Lukyamuzi and Swaibu Kakwaya will also be ready to send their team into the quarterfinals.
