Uganda Premier League | Fixture

• Lugazi vs NEC
• Police vs Mbale Heroes

Lugazi is set to lock horns with NEC in the Uganda Premier League encounter at Lugazi Stadium in Najjembe.

The Wednesday clash provides a chance for the hosts to pick their maiden victory at the beautiful playground.

The hosts come into this game with positive momentum after securing a 1-0 victory against Express at Hamz Stadium in Nakivubo.

It was history and joy as the first female gaffer in the top-tier league, Oliver Mbekeka led her troops to secure the league's maiden victory.

However, Lugazi has recently appointed Steven Bogere as the new head coach who will work closely with Mbekeka.

"Since the last game, we have been working on the psychological aspect of the players. We are now very much prepared psychologically and tactically," Mbekeka said.

"The boys are physically fit, technically and tactically good. Even their mental fitness is apparently good. We know the team (NEC) we are going to face but anythingcan happen because we believe in God," she added.

The hosts have bagged only two points in their home games while NEC has lost once in the three games played away from home.
