Morley Byekwaso (L) with one of his coaches Saka Mpiima

The side we face beat the table leaders even though the win was later overturned. We need to respect the opponent despite their fate already decided and that they are relegated. We need to impose ourselves and win and that is the most important thing. We will miss Iguma who was involved in a car accident on Thursday morning but we trust that he will recover well. We shall have Mwanje and Juma start against Tooro United and they have showed in training that they deserve to start.
