KAVUMBA – Mbarara City will make the trip to Kavumba to face Tooro United in one of the games on the StarTimes Uganda Premier League menu on Saturday.

Head coach Charles Livingstone Mbabazi, his assistant Baker Kasule and the rest of the technical team will target nothing but maximum points if they are to displace URA in the third, before the season closes.

Goalkeeper Muhammed Ssekebba who was in the goal posts against Vipers is expected to maintain his slot as first choice, Ali Kimera is suspended by the club. Team captain Hilary Mukundane and talisman Paul Mucureezi remain sidelined because of injury.

Ivan Eyam, Jude Ssemugabi, Ibrahim Orit, Pistis Barenge, Ronnie Kiseka, Zaidi Byekwaso and Wol Makueth are their key players.

On the other hand, Tooro United who are currently sixth with 39 points will play at Kavumba after confirming to the league managers. They have also previously played their home games at Buhinga and Wankulukuku Stadia.
