KCCA FC will travel to Bombo aiming for maximum points against relegation threatened UPDF FC on Wednesday.
The 13-time league champions have an opportunity to cut the gap on table leaders Vipers SC to three points.
The army side is also battling to beat the drop this term.
KCCA is currently second placed on the table with 55 points and six points below the Venoms who stumbled with a goalless draw against Police FC at Kira Road on Tuesday.
Co-coach Jackson Magera anticipates a tough contest since the army side is also fighting for their lives.
“The games against UPDF are always difficult and it will be same.“They are fighting relegation and we must be clinical at both ends of the pitch to pick maximum point.” Said Magera before adding,
“For now, our target is to win all our remaining matches and we don’t care about other peoples’ results.”
The visitors will be boosted by the return of Said Mayanja who missed the 3-0 win over Maroons.
KCCA have only lost once in the previous 17 matches against UPDF since 2015, winning 12 and 4 ending in stalemates.
The first round meeting saw KCCA thrash UPDF 4-0 at Lugogo with Sammy Ssebaduka (brace), Joel Sserunjogi and Thiery Alpha Ssali on the scoresheet.
