• Mbarara City vs Vipers SC

After winning the two opening games, Vipers seek to keep the momentum upward as they play Mbarara City FC.

The two sides will meet on Tuesday, October 3 in the Uganda Premier League at Kakyeka Stadium, Mbarara.

Vipers SC head coach Leonard Neiva expects a tough duel against the Ankole Lions but he adds his troops are ready for the assignment.

“It’s going to be a battle. We need to be at our best mentally and physically to seal a positive result,“ he said.

“We know how they play because I watched the game when they played Express FC. So, it's going to be a challenge. We have to be at our best again to collect the win,” he added.

“They have good offensive players and strong defenders. We have to be aware of the quick transitions so as to keep our goal area safe.”

The last time Vipers faced Mbarara at home, they won 2-1 in a game that slowed due to poor weather.

Mbarara will equally fight for the victory since they have managed just a point out of the two games played against NEC FC and Express FC.
