Uganda Premier League | Fixture

NEC is set to host UPDF in the Uganda Premier League at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo, on Tuesday evening.

NEC aim to keep their winning streak alive so that they keep afloat the league log.

Following the 3-1 and 2-1 victories against Vipers and Kitara, respectively, NEC has grown confident and hardly wants to place a foot wrong.

NEC head coach Hussein Mbalangu expects his troops to carry on the same momentum against the Army side.

"The past wins have energised us, and we want to carry the same momentum against UPDF," Mbalangu stated.

"We want to win and maintain the good start we have had. We have not won the two previous games by mistake rather, we planned for it," he added.

On the other hand, UPDF has equally had a decent start to the campaign managing to collect four points from two games.

The Army side started the league with a one-all draw against Maroons before they secured a 1-0 victory against Lugazi.

Team News

NEC is likely to miss the services of Joseph Dhata, who still lacks a playing license.

In the same spirit, Paul Mucureezi and Shamir Kimwero will not be part of the match day squad due to injuries.

Game Stats

The two sides have met twice, NEC has won once, and they have shared spoils twice.
