Former KCCA FC shot-stopper Opio Emmanuel will make his return to Lugogo where he played before but this time as an opponent.

Mike Mutebi on the Stanbic Uganda Cup game against Bukedea Town Council FC
People could think [Bukedea] will be easy because they do not know much about it. But we know the problems we can have, and the problems we can cause as well.
We need to show the hunger from the start and think of this test before Vipers next week.
The task at hand is Bukedea and we have to get done with that before we can think of anything else.
