SC Villa vs BUL
Masaka Recreation Ground 4pm
After their immediate rivals KCCA FC facing a slump in their performance, SC Villa have the chance to continue staying top of the table.
Defending champions KCCA FC have only picked two points in two games this week which has played in SC Villa’s favour.
Despite playing two games more, SC Villa remain top of the table on 44 points and they will be seeking to stretch the lead as they take on BUL this Saturday at Masaka Recreation ground.
This will be the second time that the Jogoos will be playing at their new home in Masaka since shifting from Nakivubo at the start of this month.
The first game was against Onduparaka and the record champions had a comprehensive 4-1 victory.
They face BUL are locked tight in the relegation battle and every game seems like a final to the Jinja based side. BUL are 12th on the log with 23 points, just a point above the drop zone.
The visitors will not be without midfielder Robert Achema and Yesseri Waibi who are on loan from SC Villa and thus cannot play against their parent club.
SC Villa on the other hand will hugely rely on the performance of prolific striker Emmanuel Okwi who has scored 7 goals in as many games since his return to SC Villa in January.
