Jinja-based BUL FC will face Arua Hill at the Adjumani Stadium on Sunday with the chance to move top of the Uganda Premier League table.
BUL are currently fourth in the standings, only three points behind leaders Kitara who have played a game extra. However, they can leapfrog Kitara if they win by two clear goals against Arua Hill.
What the BUL FC coach and captain said
BUL coach Abel Kikomeko is confident that his side can continue their winning run and move to the top of the table.
“We have traveled a long journey from Jinja to Adjumani, but the boys are in good shape,” Kikomeko said.
“We know it will be a tough game against a team that has not won in two games, but we are prepared. We are going to fight to get the three points.”
BUL will only be without the injured Ibrahim Mugulusi and Ronald Otti for the match.
BUL captain George Kasonko is also optimistic about his team’s chances of beating Arua Hill.
“We are playing a team that has gone two games without winning,” Kasonko said.
“They are at home, but we have also gone two games winning. We take every game as a final, and we promise the fans that we are going to win this match for you.”
Arua Hill, on the other hand, will be looking to record their first win of the season after losing their first two matches to Vipers (2-0) and Busoga United (1-0).
What the Arua Hill SC coach said
Arua Hill assistant coach Ahmed Borini believes that his side has learned from their mistakes in the first two games and will be a better team against BUL.
“If you look at how we have played in our previous games, it has not been bad,” Borini said. “But we made mistakes that cost us. But we have addressed them.”
The match between BUL FC and Arua Hill is expected to be a close and exciting contest.
