KCCA FC will be aiming to stretch their lead at the top when they host newcomers Buhimba United Saints FC under the lights of Lugogo on Tuesday.
The Kasasiro Boys will target maximum points before the league goes into the AFCON recess.
This will be the first ever meeting between the two sides in the Uganda Premier League.
KCCA FC currently lead the Uganda Premier League table standings with 23 points from 10 matches, while Buhimba United Saints are 14th on the table with 10 points from 10 matches.
KCCA FC have won their last four matches in the Uganda Premier League.
The 13-time League champions have however conceded in each of the last six matches in the league.
Buhimba has not won a league match since Matchday 3. They have gone 7 matches without a league win and have picked up only one point in the last seven matches, which came against UPDF in the previous fixture at home.
KCCA will be without the trio of Charles Lukwago, Shafik Nana Kwikiriza and Ivan Ahimbisibwe due to their AFCON engagements. The game comes too early for Peter Magambo, Etienne Katenga and Joao Gabriel who remain on the sidelines.
Emmanuel Anyama is out due to suspension following his red card in the victory against NEC FC.
