Mbarara City will be looking to register their first win of the Uganda Premier League season when they face Busoga United away at FUFA Technical Centre, Njeru on Thursday at 4:00PM.
The Ankole Lions settled for goalless draws in their first two matches of the season, against Vipers and Express, before losing 1-0 to NEC in their last game.
Their coach, Wasswa Bbosa, believes their biggest challenge so far has been their failure to score goals.
“In the previous games we have played, we have created a lot of chances but failed to utilize them,” he said.
“I believe we have tried to address that. We are in the right mood to compete. We know we are away but we shall give our best.”
Mbarara City are currently 12th in the table and will be expected to beat Busoga United, who have lost their last two games against Express (2-0) and NEC (5-0). Earlier they had defeated Arua Hill 1-0 in their opening game.
However, Busoga United coach Vincent Lukyamuzi is confident that his team can bounce back.
“We have to show the character going forward,” he said.
“We want to see that we bounce back strongly. We made mistakes in the previous game but we have rectified them.”
In the other Startimes Uganda Premier League fixture to be played on Thursday, Arua Hill will host Gaddafi at Paridi Stadium in Adjumani.
