- Express FC vs Wakiso Giants – Wakiso 4pm
- BUL vs Bright Stars – Najjembe 4pm
- KCCA vs Maroons – Lugogo 7pm
KCCA have an opportunity to climb top of the table if they can overcome Maroons who they lock horns with at the MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo under the lights.
Abdallah Mubiru’s unbeaten side sit third with 14 points and with defeat to NEC inflicted by Lugazi, a victory of any margin will see them overtake Vipers and remain top after match day seven.
However, it wont be a walk in the park for the Kasasiro against the Prison Warders who have not lost to KCCA in the last four Premier League meetings.
Maroons have won two of the previous four meetings including one in the reverse fixture last season.
Before this late kick off, Express make a trip to Kabaka Kyabaggu stadium to face Wakiso Giants in what will be Badru Kaddu’s first game in charge since the Red Eagles sacked Baker Mbowa.
Both teams are desperate for victory with the hosts having gone three-matches without a point and find themselves 12th on the 16-team table with just three points above the drop zone.
Express have also won none of their last two fixtures drawing away to Police and losing 1-0 to Lugazi at home and with 8 points, they are 10th with just one point separating them from the Purple Sharks.
At Lugazi, BUL host Soltilo Bright Stars, the only side yet to get maximum points from a particular game this season.
Joseph Mutyaba will be under immense pressure to get off the mark but in BUL, he faces a stern test against a side that has resurrected with two wins in a row now after a poor start to the season.
Bright Stars have just three points and are at the bottom of the log while Bul are on 8 points and can move into top four with a win.
