The Uganda Premier League secretariat has confirmed a new date for the Kampala derby between KCCA and Express.
The match was supposed to be played on match day one of the 2023/24 but the Kasasiro were involved in continental football with Libya’s Abu Salem.
Now the secretariat reveals the match will be played on Sunday October 8 at the MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo as the per the statement signed by CEO Bernard Bainamani.
“SUPL Match#8 KCCA FC Vs Express FC was not played on match day one due to KCCA FC participation in the CAF Confederation Cup…” read the statement in parts.
