Sports Club Victoria new owner, Muhammed Nsereko is expected to be among the hundred of spectators seated in the stands as his team plays Rwenshama Football Club at Nakivubo war memorial stadium.

After winning 1-3 away to Ngora Fredd Carr in the Uganda Cup last week, Morley Byekwaso returns to lead a side that overcame Simba last on Tuesday 0-2 at Bombo Stadium.
SCVU will not have left back defender, Brian Ochwo, who is with the Uganda Kobs team in Mozambique while Rwenshama F.C is missing midfielder, Gaddafi Kiwanuka for the same cause.

Rashid Kiyini, Dan Nsubuga and team skipper, Martin Mpuuga are SCVU’s show cards on the day.
