UPL Gaddafi seek to pile more misery on Onduparaka

Onduparaka lies bottom of the table with only seven points while Gaddafi has 22 on 8th.

All three encounters between Onduparaka and Gaddafi ended in stalemates. The Caterpillars were able to scrape a point from their hosts in the first leg in Jinja on the opening day of the season in one of the only three games that the Soldier Boys have failed to win at home.

They travel to Arua on Saturday after resting for over three weeks in search of a win. The Soldier Boys started poorly but hit a purple patch somehow along the way to gather 22 points that have seen them rise to the top 8 of the StarTimes Uganda Premier League.

Their coach Wasswa Bbosa believes that the three-week rest has enabled the team to correct some errors and are ready for their first win away from Kakindu in their visit to Onduparaka.

“We have prepared well even though we stayed long without playing since that Villa draw but we want to go and pick a win. They forced us to share points in Jinja but we want to see that we can get the three points this time round to push us forward,” Bbosa said ahead of the encounter.

The Soldiers will miss Simon Sserunkuma, Sadiq Ssekyembe Ibrahim Kiyimba and Dan Bilikwalira through injury.

Onduparaka lies bottom of the table with only seven points while Gaddafi has 22 on 8th.
