www.kccafc.co.ug spoke to Herbert Achai ahead of this game and he had this to say
We have recovered quite well during this international break. We would like to keep the momentum we had before the break and keep winning games. We have had a few build up games ahead of the game against UPDF. We know the threat they possess but we will try overcome the hurdle and we have the home advantage.
www.kccafc.co.ug also spoke to the Gaffer Morley Byekwaso who was awarded the Best Coach for the month of October.
We are prepared for the game. We have won UPDF several times at our home but football is today. We can’t think about history. They have experienced players and we know the threat they can possess but we have analysed them well and we will try to break them down and win at home .
