Kitara FC vs NEC FC
4pm
Royals Park – Butema
Kitara returns to Royals Park in Butema this Saturday for a massive StarTimes Uganda Premier League fixture against NEC FC. With just four games remaining, every point is crucial in the hunt for the title.
Sitting third on 54 points, Kitara knows a win is non negotiable to keep pace with the leaders. The pressure is on, but the fortress at home gives confidence. Kitara remains unbeaten at Royals Park in all competitions this season.
The Royals face a tough NEC side that has transformed since the first leg 3-3 thriller in Lugogo. They arrive with an impressive 16 game unbeaten run. However, Coach Wasswa Bbosa has his squad ready for the challenge.
“We face a good opponent, but we have our target: to win and close the gap. The team is ready and knows what is at stake,” said Bbosa.
Kitara’s attackers will be looking to be clinical after creating chances in their recent Stanbic Uganda Cup 0-0 draw with Vipers. Patrick Kaddu, Muhammad Shaban, George Senkaaba, Kabon Living, and Edson Agondeze are all prepared to make the difference.
Team News:
Kitara will be without goalkeeper Meddie Kibirige due to a two match suspension. The rest of the squad is available for selection
