For the first time this season, SC Villa won their two consecutive games after beating limping sides Busoga United and Tooro United.
Tomorrow at Kavumba, they will face another struggling side in Soltilo Bright Stars who haven’t won a game of football in six outings.
Their last victory came in November when they beat Tooro United 1-0 at Kavumba, they have gone on to lose thrice and drew thrice and are languishing in the relegation zone alongside Tooro and Busoga United.
Soltilo Bright Stars are 5 points behind 13th placed Onduparaka and they have no further room for error if they are to survive the drop.

They have also attained licences for defenders Shafiq Bakaki and Bernard Agere.
Whereas Bakaki is yet to hit top fitness levels, Agere is likely to start in defence to partner Kenneth Semakula.
Petros Koukouras is expected to mantain the same line up that beat Tooro United 4-0 save for the Agere inclusion.
