BUL Fc welcome Proline at Kakindu tomorrow in the Azam Uganda Premier league.
The game comes amidst speculation surrounding BUL Fc head coach Kefa Kisala that he is on the edge of losing his job following a poor run of results.

BUL Fc comes in this fixture having lost three games in succession against Bright Stars , Sc Villa and Masavu. The Jinja based has also spent 270 minutes without scoring.
The visitors Proline on the other hand lost their previous fixture 2-1 at home to Express Fc, thanks to a Mubarak Nsubuga late winner.
The last 7 matches between the two has yielded 13 goals with BUL being the dominant side after emerging victorious on 5 occasions, Proline once and drawing once. Kefa Kisala looks to build on that record to inspire his team who are low on confidence.
He says,
“It’s quite unfortunate that we have found our selves in this situation but we have been working on our mental strength and toughness in the previous days”.
“We have not been playing poorly but not converting our chances that’s why we have gone 4 matches minus scoring”.
“Our record against Proline gives us confidence coming into this game that we can turn our fortunes around.”

Last season during the league meetings between both sides, at the venue for tomorrow’s game they played to a barren stalemate. In the return leg at Lugogo Proline won 2-1 courtesy of goals from Nelson Ssenkatuka and Isiagi with Yunus Sibira scoring a consolation for BUL FC.
Proline will be looking for their first away victory this season having lost three and drawn two of their last five outings.
Yunus Sibira, Paul Mujampani, Lawrence Nduga all are out for the hosts Bul with injuries, while Proline will miss the services of Ivan Bukenya, Noordin Bunjo, Joshua Okiror through injuries.
The Jinja outfit will bank on Daniel Shabene, Hamis Tibita and defender William Otongo while Mujib Kasule’s side will rely on Fahad Bayo, Sula Matovu ‘Malouda’ and Joseph Mandela.
BUL currently lies second from the bottom with 9 points in 11 games whereas Proline sits 12th on 11 points collected from 10 games.
A win for BUL Fc will cool the mounting pressure on Kefa Kisala and will see them move out of the drop zone in case other fixtures go in their favour.
