Pacesetters KCCA Football Club faces their biggest test of the season thus far as they visit second-placed Vipers Sports Club at St Mary’s stadium, Kitende on Sunday.

The two sides come into the clash on the back of identical 3-1 wins. KCCA beat while Vipers were winners against Gaddafi.

KCCA head coach Morley Byekwaso wants his side to be more clinical against a side he feels it's the biggest test for his charges.

“This will be a big test for us as we play one of the top title contenders.

“We have to have our A-game against them and I think the team that will have the right tactics will take the day.

“We need to get more clinical in front of the goal. If we can get to score more goals then we will be unplayable. I have told my players to handle the game as we have been handling all other games,” Byekwaso told the club website.

Vipers is six points off the pace with a game at hand but will need a victory at home to keep the Kasasiro in reach.
