KCCA FC will play Wakiso Giants FC in the quarterfinal game of the FUFA Super 8 at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo.

The FUFA Super 8 is a tournament played in preseason by the best eight teams from the previous season.

KCCA FC won the inaugural FUFA Super 8 competition in 2018 against Onduparaka FC and went on to lose the 2019 edition in a final against Vipers SC. Both finals were played at Mutessa II Stadium, Wankulukuku.

KCCA FC finished second, while Wakiso Giants FC finished 8th on the StarTimes Uganda Premier League table last season.

The last time both sides met last season, KCCA FC won 1-0 against Wakiso Giants FC in Wakiso.

KCCA FC completed the double over the Wakiso based side last season. 3-2 at Lugogo and 1-0 in Wakiso.

KCCA FC Manager Sergio Daniel Traguil will surely be using the Super 8 as a precursor tournament ahead of the CAF Confederation Cup games in September.
