Match day 14 of FUFA Women Super League commences on Saturday morning as Wakiso Hill Women Football Club visits She Makerere at 10:00 AM at Makerere University playground.
In what will be a relegation battle, She Makerere will not only be hunting for their first home win of the season but also seek to complete the double over Wakiso Hill WFC.
In their first encounter, a narrow 1-0 win in Kitende secured by newcomer Noeline Namiro, gave them the upper hand.
Wakiso Hill’s Resurgence Under New Coach
However, Wakiso Hill has shown promising signs under new manager Rogers Nkugwa. They’ve only lost once (to defending champions Kampala Queens) in their last three matches, recording two wins and a draw.
Wakiso Hill have collected seven points of the possible nine in their last three league game and they’re expecting to carry the same performance against Makerere.
In the previous encounters, Wakiso Hill dropped 2 points in the last minutes after a 1-1 draw with Uganda Martyrs while She Makerere played to a 1-all draw with Kawempe Muslim on Wednesday this week.
Can She Makerere End Winless Streak?
While Wakiso Hill finds form, She Makerere faces a daunting task. They haven’t won a game in 11 consecutive matches, drawing eight and losing three – the longest winless streak in the league.
Injury Woes for She Makerere
She Makerere will be without captain Josephine Ndagire due to accumulated yellow cards. Defender Winnie Nakanwagi remains sidelined with an ankle injury, and midfielder Hasifah Namboozo is doubtful due to illness.
