- Congo vs Uganda - 7pm
- South Africa vs South Sudan - 7pm
Uganda is set to face Congo Brazzaville in their final Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) Qualifier on Tuesday.
The Cranes will look to end the campaign on a positive note after a disappointing 2-0 loss to South Africa, which knocked them off the top spot in the group. This defeat was a setback for both the team and their supporters.
A victory today would rekindle hope among Ugandan fans and reaffirm their belief in the team.
Having defeated Congo 2-0 in the first leg at Namboole, a win today would complete a double over their opponents.
While South Africa currently leads the group, Uganda still has a chance to claim the top spot if they win and South Sudan avoids a loss.
Congo has a recent record of one win, three losses, and a draw in their last five competitive matches. In contrast, Uganda has secured three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five outings.
Historically, Uganda has a slight edge, winning three of the last five encounters against Congo. One match ended in a draw, and Congo claimed one victory.
