They have won once and drawn as many in the League, also adding a victory in the cup.
Wakiso Giants FC are currently 8th with 24 points from 19 games.
They head into the game with Karim Ndugwa suspended after accumulating three yellow cards and his place could be taken by Geoffrey Sserunkuma. Right back Geriga Atendele could debut after getting cleared to play while Gaddafi Wahab and Faizul Ibrahim are in contention for starting berths.
For Bright Stars, they are currently in the best form of their entire campaign.
